Tirsdag d. 26. oktober, var der indvielse af det nye landstrømsanlæg til DFDS Oslofærger i København. Dermed er der nu landstrømsanlæg i både København og Oslo, hvorved færgerne CROWN SEAWAYS og PEARL SEAWAYS, kan slukke motorerne mens de ligger ved kaj.
“I am proud to present the first shore power facility in Copenhagen for the benefit of both passengers and the local environment. This is the rewarding result of a solid partnership between CMP, Actemium and DFDS. We are facing the green transition, which is enormously complex, and it is precisely partnerships and joint efforts such as this that are essential when we need to develop green, innovative solutions and move in the right direction.”
Peder Gellert Pedersen, Executive Vice President and Head of Ferry Division at DFDS.
Anlægget er det første i Københavns havn, men ikke det sidste. I 2024, vil der også være landstrømsanlæg til de krydstogtskibe som ligger til ved Ydre Nordhavn og Langelinie.
“Today’s inauguration of the shore power facility for the DFDS ferries marks a very important step in our efforts to make the port activities in Copenhagen greener. I would like to thank DFDS, our technical advisor COWI and our general contractor Actemium for their efforts in working together to realise the project, which will have a significant great climate and environmental benefit.”
Barbara Scheel Agersnap, CEO of Copenhagen Malmö Port.
