The Port of Barcelona's Board of Directors approved the awarding of the design project and the execution of the new medium-voltage electrical infrastructure that will supply electricity to the Adossat dock to the Temporary Union of Companies (UTE) formed by Regenera and Adiante.
The tender includes the drafting of the project and the management of the technical documentation and necessary permits for the commissioning of this new medium-voltage network, with a capacity of 25 KV; and the construction of the new electrical infrastructure.
This will be developed in two independent lines: one will supply electricity from the Port substation, currently under construction; the second will supply electricity from the Cerdà substation. The two lines will converge in the submarine connection being built between the Energia and Adossat docks and will provide electricity to the Adossat dock, guaranteeing the necessary electrical power for the operation of the Onshore Power Supply (OPS) systems at the cruise and ferry terminals on this dock and reinforcing the electrical supply in this area of the Port.
An Important Step within the Nexigen Plan
It is worth noting that this is the last remaining work needed to electrify the Adossat dock, where all cruise terminals and the future Baleària ferry terminal will be located. Until now, the following actions have already been undertaken: connection rights to REE, new high-voltage connection and Port substation, OPS for Terminal H (MSC), OPS for Terminal G (Royal Caribbean), and the submarine connections between the Energia dock and the Adossat dock.
The infrastructure now awarded allows for progress in the development of the Nexigen Dock Electrification Plan, one of the main pillars of the Port of Barcelona's environmental sustainability strategy. The Nexigen Plan, in which over 200 million EUR will be invested, has already begun to supply energy to vessels (container ships and ferries), enabling them to shut down their auxiliary engines while docked with the aim of reducing emissions and improving air quality in the port environment.
