The latest new orders for MoorMaster are worth approximately \u20ac9m and on completion of these projects, Cavotec will have equipped more than 40 e-ferry ports in Scandinavia with the automated mooring system.<\/p>\n
“These projects demonstrate the unrivalled suitability of MoorMaster for e-ferry applications, and the importance of the technology for this rapidly growing segment in Norway and beyond,” said Gustavo Miller, President Ports and Maritime Division at Cavotec.<\/p>\n
e-ferry servicing<\/strong><\/p>\n Following its stated aim of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 40%, Norway has led the introduction of electrically powered and hybrid vessels. Cavotec has become a crucial partner in this effort through its development of innovative automated charging interface and mooring technologies.<\/p>\n The MoorMaster units keep vessels in pre-programmed positions to maximise the amount of time available to charge ship battery units.<\/p>\n Cavotec systems have moored and charged the world’s first fully electric car ferry, the MF Ampere<\/em>, since it entered service in 2015. Following the success of the MF Ampere<\/em> application, Cavotec mooring and charging technologies have been introduced at a growing number of e-ferry berths in Norway, Finland and Sweden.<\/p>\n To date, more than 260 MoorMaster units worldwide have performed some 330,000 moorings at ferry, bulk and container handling, as well as lock and ship-to-ship applications worldwide.<\/p>\n Cavotec said that the rapid introduction of e-ferries in Norway has been the dominant driver for the wider adoption of MoorMaster in recent years, a development it\u2019s now seeing being replicated in neighbouring markets including Finland and Denmark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cavotec is continuing to revolutionise the operation of e-vessels by delivering and maintaining its automated, unmanned, mooring system across Norwegian ferry ports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":74,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-73","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-energy-technology-greenport"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":75,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73\/revisions\/75"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=73"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
