Скачать или смотреть Marine Cargo & DSU Insurance for BESS | 204 Battery Units transported from Shanghai(China) to Europe

This video follows the logistics journey of a utility-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project, starting with the sea arrival of 204 battery units shipped from Shanghai, China.

For energy storage projects, transit risk begins long before installation. It starts at the point of origin and evolves across every stage of the supply chain - from ocean transit to port handling and onward transport toward the project site in Europe.

This phase highlights two critical components of project risk management:

Marine Cargo Insurance

Covering physical loss or damage to high-value BESS equipment during international sea transit, port operations, and subsequent inland transport. Battery storage systems require specialized consideration due to their technical sensitivity, weight, and environmental exposure.

Delay in Start-Up (DSU)

Addressing the financial consequences of an insured cargo incident during transport results in a delay in commissioning. For storage projects, delivery timing is directly linked to construction sequencing, revenue expectations, and financing structures, making DSU an essential part of the insurance framework.

War & Strikes Coverage

Reflecting the realities of today’s global trade environment, particularly for shipments passing through major maritime corridors such as the Suez Canal, where geopolitical tensions and disruptions can impact transit.

Transport, unloading, and site delivery represent complex logistics environments involving heavy handling, multiple contractors, and strict timelines. At this stage, aligning technical cargo understanding with project-level insurance structuring becomes critical.

This video is part of a broader look at how specialized Marine Cargo, DSU, and War & Strikes insurance solutions support renewable energy and storage projects from international shipment to final installation.
