Rotterdam Shore Power (RSP) says it has started construction of shore power facilities at ROG Ship Repair & Rotterdam Offshore Group's yard in the Waalhaven area of the Port of Rotterdam.

The project is being delivered through RSP's Shore Power as a Service model, with construction partners NOS Energy Solutions AS and Forteck working alongside the project team to carry out the initial works.

The first phase of construction involves installing cable infrastructure, which is said to be the backbone of the shore power system. The shore power module itself is scheduled to be installed next year.

Construction is taking place while ROG's repair and maintenance operations continue around the clock.

According to RSP, the first seagoing vessels at ROG — including tankers, container ships, cargo vessels and offshore vessels — will be able to connect to shore power by summer 2027.

The project is co-financed by the European Union through the ERDF Opportunities for West programme, as well as by the Netherlands' Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management.
