Shore power, also known as cold ironing, is a technology used in the maritime industry to reduce air pollution and noise from ships while in port. It allows ships to connect to an onshore electrical power source, allowing them to shut down their diesel engines and switch to a cleaner, more efficient power source. This technology is becoming increasingly popular as it helps to reduce emissions and noise pollution, as well as providing a more reliable power source for ships. Shore power technology is used in a variety of maritime applications, including cruise ships, cargo ships, and ferries. It is also used in ports and harbors to provide a reliable power source for ships while they are docked. Companies in the shore power market include ABB, Siemens, Wartsila, Caterpillar, and MAN Energy Solutions. Show Less Read more
