EU Funds Offshore Charging Pilot in Denmark to Reduce Emissions
A consortium led by Stillstrom by Maersk has received $5.8 million in funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe program to develop and test offshore charging infrastructure for vessels at anchor in Denmark. The initiative, known as the SPARK project, aims to establish a pilot Offshore Power Zone in Skagen, one of Northern Europe’s busiest anchorage hubs. This project targets the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from ships that run their engines while stationary between operations. The consortium includes Aalborg University and other partners, focusing on creating sustainable solutions for maritime operations.
