Cochran's Marine Shore Power System now has patent pending status. Over the last four years Mike Watts and his team have worked on developing a unique solution for the cruise line industry to provide a cost-saving and environmentally sound alternative to idling diesel engines as a source of power while in port.Marine
For more than five decades and millions of miles of cabling, Cochran has built its reputation on innovation and seamless execution. Together with Carnival Cruise Lines, we recognized an unmet need for clean and efficient ways to electrically power the thousands of cruise ships and ocean transport vessels calling on ports each year. Starting with a bold new idea, we created a standards-based shore power solution that benefits operators, ports, utilities, citizens and the environment.
Cruise ship and ocean transport operators, together with their ports of call, need cost-saving and environmentally sound alternatives to idling diesel engines as a source of power while in port. Cochran, the leading provider of shore power solutions, has developed a standard based on its patent-pending technology. For operators and port authorities, this standard is a proven means of electrically powering vessels.
