Zinus AS wins deal for shore power unit delivery to Port of Skagen

Zinus AS has won a contract for the delivery of two of its ZPP115 shore power units to port of Skagen, Denmark.

The Port of 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 shore power technology is an essential part of that strategy.

The units are set to be delivered early in 2025, according to the shore power solutions provider Zinus.

“We are thrilled to add the Port of Skagen to our growing list of Danish clients,” said Klaus Kopelman, sales manager at Zinus AS.

The ZPP115 is an upgraded version of the ZPP215 model and offers “easy and efficient handling of shore power cable management”, as the company claims.

“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,” added Klaus Kopelman.

Willy B. Hansen, chief executive officer of Port of Skagen, noted: “The Cabel Management System from Zinus AS 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.”
