The following indicators are analyzed and proposed to assess the energy efficiency of sea and river ports: specific energy consumption, maximum load usage time, specific costs for cargo transportation by waterways. To solve the problem of energy saving, it is proposed to use the indicator of specific energy consumption, which can be calculated according to the technology standards for any given operating conditions of port transshipment equipment. The analysis of unit costs was performed, which showed that the rational use of portal cranes when performing cargo operations also provides energy savings. An approach is proposed to assess the qualification of crane operators for the parameters of power consumption. The information obtained as a result of a statistical study on the assessment of the dependence of the crane performance on the individual indicators of the operator, such as work experience, age, qualification, was considered as a priori. The connection between energy and production processes was established in relation to berths, individual areas of the port and the port as a whole, at the same time, the daily cargo turnover was chosen as a technological indicator, and the daily power consumption was chosen as an energy indicator. Based on the conducted analysis of energy intensity, research and modeling, real ways to reduce electricity costs and increase the energy efficiency of ports are identified. Further ways of developing research in the field of assessing the forecasting of energy efficiency of port activities, which are based on the transition from purely statistical methods to computational and experimental methods, are considered.
