On December 8, 2023, Piraeus Port Authority S.A. organized a conference on “Electrification of Ships in the Port of Piraeus – Prospects and Challenges”.
The Conference was held in the context of the energy transition of the infrastructure of the port of Piraeus and adaptation of its port operations to the imperatives of the Green Agreement and the EU Package of Measures “Fit for 55”.
It is noted that Piraeus Port Authority has already proceeded with a number of related actions, through two co-financed projects by the EU (CIPORT and EALING), having completed all the technical studies for 5 ship electrification positions in coastal shipping and 4 cruise ship electrification positions, while launching the construction of the aforementioned projects.
