![]() ![]() The other Danish cruise port with shore power capabilities is Aarhus (since 2023). Shore power for cruise ships in Copenhagen will be available in 2024. ![]() For the project were contracted Actemium SAS (Sweden, parent company VINCI Energies SA//design and building) and COWI AS (Denmark/technical advisor). Both ships were deployed on the Norway-Denmark route Oslo-Copenhagen. By this project (inaugurated on October 26, 2021), two DFDS-owned cruiseferries ( Crown Seaways and Pearl Seaways) were able to receive dockside electricity (from the city's power grid) when berthed. In early-October 2019, CMP and the Danish company DFDS Seaways signed a deal to construct a shoreside power facility. The newly allowed max LOA length for cruise ships in Port Malmo is 300 m (985 ft). However, there is a wind speed restriction during maiden ship visits - 29 kph (18 mph). The conclusion was that it is possible ships to maneuver in the cruise port at max speed 3 kn (5,6 kph / 3,5 mph) and side winds up to 36 kph (22 mph) without any pilot boat assistance. A total of 18 berthings (dockings) were performed. Simulations were conducted over several days with different types of vessels in different weather conditions and wind forces. In 2016-Q3 were carried out extensive simulations in Gothenburg Sweden in order to ascertain whether it's possible port Malmo to handle larger-sized vessels. There was a previous constraint on cruise liners visiting Malmo that limited the port calls to ships with LOA length not exceeding 240 m (787 ft). In April 2017, the Swedish Maritime Administration gave its permission to Copenhagen Malmo Port to receive large-sized cruise vessels in port Malmo. Copenhagen is also a significant port of call on Christmas cruises leaving from UK ports. Cruises leaving out of Copenhagen comprise ~45% of the ship calls. Among those are the round-trips to Norwegian Fjords (along the Norway's western coastline) and to Scandinavia and Russia (visiting ports in Norway, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, Finland, Estonia, Russia). Copenhagen Malmo Port (abbrev CMP) is a major turnaround cruise port in Northern Europe and among the most popular departure ports for Baltic Sea itineraries. ![]()
