Our platform
A unique system design for safer, more efficient, and reliable operation.
​
When vessels dock at a Watts Marine-equipped port, our advanced automation system instantly configures optimal power delivery parameters. With just a single selection by our shore-side operator, our intelligent system handles the entire connection process automatically. Our precision monitoring delivers detailed performance analytics, tracking energy consumption, connection duration, and key metrics - all in clear, actionable reports.
Mobile Cable Positioning Device
Connecting shore power systems to cruise vessels of various sizes
Our revolutionary Mobile Cable Positioning Device (CPD) brings unprecedented flexibility to shore power operations. Unlike fixed systems, this innovative solution can be rapidly repositioned to serve multiple vessels along the berth - whether they're 60 feet apart or more. This game-changing mobility maximizes your infrastructure investment.
​
Engineered for operational excellence, our compact CPD system ensures swift, secure cable handling while minimizing dock space requirements. Its streamlined design integrates seamlessly with vessel operations, delivering the reliability you expect with the versatility you need.
Why invest in shore power
Reduce diesel emissions from ships at dock
When a vessel is connected to shore power, overall pollutant emissions can be reduced by up to 98% when utilizing power from the regional electricity grid.
Benefits for ship owners and ports
Connecting on a land-based power source reduces ship owners’ fuel costs by eliminating the need to run diesel auxiliary engines which also increases the competitiveness of ports.
Get ahead of industry regulations
Owners and operators around the world are increasingly challenged to meet ever stricter emissions standards. Investing in a shore power system speeds up compliance.
