Cavotec has signed an order valued at €7m with a global container shipping company to retrofit more vessels for shore power.
The order covers the retrofit of low- and medium-voltage container vessels with shore power technology. The retrofitting work will be carried out while the vessels remain in operation, so as not to interrupt their sailing schedules. Delivery is expected during 2026.
This order means that the customer has selected Cavotec to equip a total of 24 container ships with shore power.
David Pagels, CEO Cavotec, said: ”We are pleased that this customer continues to expand its adoption of our shore power retrofit solutions. The demand for ship electrification continues to grow and this order strengthens our position as a leading provider of shore power solutions for the global shipping industry.”
