Long Lead Electrical Equipment

The Connecticut Port Authority is seeking proposals for the supply of long lead electrical equipment for the modification of the existing high-voltage shore power outlet at the southern station and an additional high-voltage shore power outlet on the northern side of the berth. The project aims to enable docked marine vessels to connect to the local electric grid to power onboard services instead of running their diesel engines. The scope of work includes purchasing mobile shore power equipment, furnishing, and installing supporting shore power infrastructure. • The project involves purchasing and installing electrical equipment, including high-voltage shore power outlets and low-voltage shore power outlets. • The project aims to reduce the environmental impact of marine vessels by enabling them to use shore power instead of diesel engines. • The Connecticut Port Authority is a quasi-public agency responsible for marketing and coordinating the development of the state's ports and maritime economy. • The project is part of the New London State Pier Shore Power Project.
