MUSCAT : Signed during the Gulf Green Mobility Forum, the agreement appoints MoonRock as the lead investor and PowerCon Denmark as the technical partner to establish shore power infrastructure at Sohar Port’s container terminal.
According to a statement from Sohar Port and Freezone, this strategic project will enable vessels to plug into onshore power while berthed, significantly reducing emissions, improving efficiency, and advancing carbon neutrality by 2050. “It also strengthens Oman’s position in attracting global shipping lines seeking to meet IMO decarbonization green shipping targets and supports the nation’s transition towards a greener logistics sector,” it added.
