Cavotec has signed a shore power order from Equans for the Port of Antwerp-Bruges in Belgium with a total value of approximately USD$1.77 million (EUR 1.55 million). The system will contribute to reduced emissions and supports compliance with international environmental regulations.
The project, which is co-funded by the European Union, will enable cruise vessels calling at the terminal to connect to shore-side electricity, allowing them to shut down their onboard generators and reduce emissions while berthed.
As part of the agreement, Cavotec will also provide maintenance services for the equipment for a period of five years. Delivery is scheduled for the third quarter of 2026.
