- In March 2023, Siemens announced the development of one of Europe's largest shore power connections in Kiel, Germany. This system will allow ships to connect to the local electric grid while docked, reducing emissions by enabling vessels to shut down their diesel engines. The initiative supports the maritime industry's shift towards sustainable practices, aligning with environmental targets and reducing air pollution. Siemens’ development is expected to drive further adoption of shore power technology, positioning the company as a leader in green maritime solutions.
