Shorepower solution provider, Zinus has won a contract from the Danish Port of Skagen to deliver two ZPP115 shorepower units.
The units are due to be delivered early in 2025, marking another milestone in Zinus’ expanding presence in Denmark.
ZPP115 is an upgraded version of the ZPP215 model. Designed with flexibility in mind, the ZPP115 offers easy and efficient handling of shorepower cable management, catering to the diverse needs of ports and the vessels served, the company said.
“We are thrilled to add the Port of Skagen to our growing list of Danish clients,” said Klaus Kopelman, Zinus’ Sales Manager.
“The Port of Skagen is a vital hub in the region, serving a variety of vessels from fishing and cargo to cruise ships. Our ZPP115 units will provide the port with a reliable, environmentally friendly power solution, helping them to reduce emissions and create a cleaner port environment.
“This partnership represents a great step forward in supporting Denmark’s ambitions for greener maritime operations,” he said.
Skagen is one of Denmark’s busiest and most diverse ports and with rapid growth underway, the port has been focusing on enhancing its sustainability efforts, and the introduction of shorepower technology is an essential part of that strategy.
Port of Skagen CEO, Willy Hansen, said, “The cable management system from Zinus is a vital part of the Port of Skagen pilot in the Interreg North Sea project – Green Supply Chains.
“The pilot aim is to electrify the pelagic fish landing operation at the Scandic Pelagic & FF-Skagen landing terminals. The system will enable the large vessels to turn off their diesels and run on green electricity,” he added.
