Cavotec has signed a US$5 million order for shore power with a global shipping company, which includes a number of PowerFit shore power units, enabling vessels to connect to shore power while docked.
The delivery of the machines is scheduled for later this year.
Cavotec’s PowerFit units represent a breakthrough in shore power technology, offering complete containerized solutions for high-voltage vessel connections. By facilitating shore power connections, these systems can significantly reduce air and noise pollution in ports, according to Cavotec’s announcement.
”This partnership with a global shipping company is yet another confirmation of the strength of our offering,” said Patrick Mares, President of Ports & Maritime Division at Cavotec. “Our innovative shore power systems contribute to the decarbonisation of ports worldwide as well as quieter port environments.”
