Savona Port Completes Onshore Power Supply System for Vessels

What Happened?

The Western Ligurian Sea Port Authority has finished installing its onshore power supply (OPS) system at the Port of Savona's cruise terminal, allowing ships to use shore power instead of auxiliary engines. This infrastructure upgrade is part of a larger energy program that includes ongoing OPS development at the Vado Ligure container terminal. The new capability will change in-port operational procedures and compliance requirements for carriers calling at these locations.
