      abstract = {Following the global concern and IMO directives, in  particular for greener shipping, ships and ports tend to  become more efficient in terms of environmental  friendliness, energy consumption as well as services  provided. This paper deals with facing the challenges  emerged within this framework, as in the ship case, certain  retrofitting works have to take place onboard a ship such  as the installation of water ballast treatment systems,  scrubbers, cold-ironing facilities, and LED lights. The  paper discusses the necessity to perform a number of  studies (e.g. harmonic distortion, short-circuit, arc-flash  etc) so that major safety requirements are met, while on  the other hand, the electric energy system has to be tuned  to a significant extent so that it operates in an optimum  manner which is most often interpreted as minimum fuel  consumption and emissions. Further, the paper makes a  similar discussion for the case of the ports.},
