Sweden’s first MoorMaster NxG vacuum mooring system officially entered service last week, paving the way for significant safety, operational and sustainability gains. The system, at Port of Kapellskär, part of Ports of Stockholm, is now being used with Finnlines’ new-build Ro/Pax passenger and freight vessel, Finnsirius.
The Swedish port of Gävle recently became one of the first in the world to successfully connect a tanker vessel to a shoreside electricity system provided by Cavotec.
We’re launching a brand-new charging solution at Bauma 2022 that is set to transform operational safety and efficiency at industrial applications all over the world. We’ll also be exhibiting our existing range of powerful charging and electrification technologies at the event that kicks off in Munich on 24th October. #bauma #evinfrastructure #emobility #constructionindustry #mining #tunneling
Our MoorMaster™ automated mooring systems have completed more than one million moorings at bulk, ferry, Ro/Ro, container handling and lock applications all over the world, making ports safer, more efficient and more sustainable.
Cavotec will support the decarbonisation at APM Terminals MedPort Tangier by providing its next generation vacuum mooring system MoorMaster NxG. The automated transhipment terminal is one of the most technologically advanced, safest, and efficient terminals in the world.
Our MoorMaster automated vacuum mooring technology marks a major milestone today with the official opening of the new 6 Wharf at Napier Port in New Zealand, the country's fourth largest port by container handling volume.
Cavotec CEO Mikael Norin has recorded a video message in which he speaks about our performance in 2021 and the success of our focus on cleantech solutions for ports and industrial applications, and how Cavotec is now at an inflection point, where previously niche markets are becoming mass markets.
Shore power is increasingly seen as an effective way to reduce emissions from ships in port. The problem has intensified in the wake of the pandemic, as cruise ships that previously stayed in ports for a matter of hours, stay at the same berths continually running their conventionally-powered engines. Cavotec's shore power solutions are addressing the issue.
We are delighted to announce that Cavotec China has won the Excellent Supplier Award from infrastructure equipment manufacturer Epiroc, one of our key customers. The award is a tribute to the commitment of our colleagues in Shanghai and throughout Cavotec Group to creating a strong partnership with Epiroc China and helping Epiroc to improve its position on the highly competitive Chinese market.
The shipping industry is responsible for more than 2.5% of the world’s emissions. If the shipping sector were a country, it would be the sixth largest polluter in the world. But we can change this. We have the technology today that can be retrofitted to existing ships to reduce harmful emissions. We also have the technology to upgrade our ports to reduce pollution.
In recent weeks, ports around the world have been hit by delays and backlogs caused by factors including a surge in demand, a lack of empty containers, and the coronavirus – the latter manifesting as mass quarantining, social distancing, illness, and lockdowns. In the UK, these issues were compounded by fears of a no-deal Brexit.
How is Cavotec making profitable sustainability a reality for customers worldwide, ensuring a future world that is safer, more efficient, and more sustainable today? At a recent investors’ meeting event that we hosted in Stockholm and online, we set out how we’re a key enabler of profitable sustainability. We spoke to Memed Uzel, Cavotec’s Chief Commercial Officer, to find out more.
