Cavotec shore power connections on ships all over the world
Cavotec has won landmark shore power connection orders from two major customers in Asia, representing a total value of more than €2.2m (US$2.4m).
The orders are for a number of PowerAMPReels that will be fitted to container ships, with one order placed by a customer in South Korea and the other in Singapore.
One of the ships is a duel-fuel vessel, powered with conventional bunker fuel and methanol, demonstrating how shore power can be part of a blended approach that reduces the environmental footprint of global shipping.
The orders were booked in the first quarter of 2022, following on from similar orders from customers in Asia throughout 2021, and deliveries are expected to start in the third quarter.
PoweAMPReels connect ships to shore power in ports, enabling dramatic reductions in emissions of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and sulphur oxides and particulate matter.
Cavotec’s innovative shore power systems play a vital role in helping ports and shipping lines reduce their environmental impact and achieve climate targets.
