Port of Kiel to accommodate Germany’s largest shore power system

The Port of Kiel commissioned Siemens to build Germany’s largest shore power system to date. With a power of 16 megavolt amperes (MVA), the Siharbor solution will supply two ships at the same time with certified eco-power, for the first time.

This will reduce annual CO2 emissions by more than 8,000 tons. The system is expected to go into test operation within the 2020 cruise ship season. 32 different cruise ships stopped in 174 times at the port facilities in 2018.

By building this new shore...
