The new shore power stations in the Port of Duisburg enable ships to use environmentally friendly energy while docked. This saves fuel, reduces emissions, and protects the environment. You can connect your vessel to the charging stations using a CEE plug and start/stop the charging process with an RFID card. RFID cards can be obtained from Stadtwerke Duisburg.
