Cavotec's Alternative Maritime Power (AMP) is a cold ironing system which allows ships to turn off their engines when in port, and plug into shore-side electricity supply, thus helping to bring cleaner air to ports and surrounding communities. This video shows a vessel being connected to AMP at the Port of Los Angeles.

Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach tackle CO2 emissions head on

The Port of Los Angeles has developed a Carbon Calculator for ports to estimate greenhouse gas levels from their operations and explore reduction strategies. The neighbouring Port of Long Beach, meanwhile, has unveiled its latest shore power installation in its continued bid to reduce port-wide emissions.

All set: a shore power dispenser unit charging the Vision of the Fjords at the Flåm berth in Norway.

Shore power, charging infrastructure could cut CO2 emissions in Norway by 12.5 million tonnes

Shore power and charging infrastructure could reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 12.5 million tonnes at ports in Norway every year – this is one of the main conclusions of a report compiled by a pool of experts from ABB, DNV GL, the Port of Oslo, and Cavotec, working under the auspices of ReCharge, an initiative that seeks to pave the way for zero emission ports in the Scandinavian country.
