energy berth

We have to be careful here. The term "energy port" seems mostly to be used for a port which deals with energy supplies, see ref 1 (Gothenburg) , which also shows that there are several separate berths with special loading /unloading facilities. As the context here seems to deal with a specific berth with some mechanism in the roof, a narrower term would be better, I think. See Ref 2 (Kulevi) which describes this type of specialist berth.
Example sentence:

It is a high speed unique energy berth, with a design that efficiently reduces energy losses during loading and unloading.
