Global Ports Holding Plc Celebrates Sustainability Milestone as Valletta Cruise Port Successfully Implements Shore Power - Seite 2

Mehmet Kutman, Chairman and CEO of Global Ports Holding, expressed gratitude, stating, "This accomplishment underscores our unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability and innovation. I extend my sincere thanks to the Maltese Government and Infrastructure Malta for their pivotal role in bringing this project to fruition. Special appreciation goes to the Valletta Cruise Port team for their persistent efforts and coordination."

Stephen Xuereb, COO of Global Ports Holding and GM of Valletta Cruise Port, echoed these sentiments, emphasizing, "The successful integration of shore power at Valletta Cruise Port stands as a testament to our dedication to eco-friendly initiatives. We prioritize Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations, and this achievement aligns with our commitment to advancing green energy solutions across all GPH facilities."

This €49.9 million initiative, led by the Ministry for Transport, Infrastructure and Capital Projects, Infrastructure Malta, and Transport Malta, and supported by Valletta Cruise Port, aims to provide shore power on the five main cruise ship quays of Valletta's Grand Harbour. The initiative is expected to result in significantly reduced emissions and a substantial improvement in air quality, as the shore supply allows cruise ships to switch off their onboard generators while in port.
