ZEBOX and NatPower Marine announce a strategic partnership to accelerate the development and deployment of energy infrastructure supporting the decarbonisation and electrification of ports and maritime transport.

NatPower Marine, a NatPower Group company enabling the energy transition in the maritime sector, has signed a strategic agreement to acquire the Aqua superPower international charging network from ATV Power, a provider of marine electrification technologies and charging infrastructure.

At Assiterminal’s 25th anniversary in Rome, NatPower Marine outlined a clear industry shift: from deploying shore power assets to delivering fully integrated, operational energy systems.

2025 marked a defining year for NatPower Marine as we moved from ambition to execution—advancing real-world electrification projects, strengthening global partnerships, and accelerating the maritime energy transition across key routes and regions.

In a major international initiative to reduce maritime emissions, global clean infrastructure developer NatPower Marine and leading Asian shipowner Wah Kwong Maritime Transport have launched a groundbreaking joint venture.

NatPower Marine, a leading developer of clean energy infrastructure for the maritime sector, is pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Athenian Sea Carriers.

NatPower Marine and Peel Ports Group are set to commence installation of shore power at Heysham in September 2025.

With MEPC 83, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has sent a clear signal: the maritime industry must accelerate its efforts to cut emissions.

Cold ironing is emerging as a powerful tool for reducing emissions in shipping, helping vessels cut pollution while alongside and accelerating the shift towards cleaner port operations.

Limited charging capacity and grid access are creating a major barrier to ferry electrification across European ports. NatPower Marine is calling for greater investment in charging infrastructure.

High electricity prices and grid-related costs are creating commercial challenges for UK shore power projects, making it harder for ports to deliver maritime electrification. NatPower Marine is highlighting the need to address these costs and create the right conditions for investment in shore power.

Rising emissions costs are increasing pressure on ferry operators to decarbonise. The article highlights how shore power, e-ship charging and Green Shipping Corridors can help turn ambition into action.

The IMO’s decision to delay the adoption of a global carbon-pricing mechanism for shipping has not stopped progress on maritime decarbonisation. As Stefano D.M. Sommadossi, CEO of NatPower Marine, highlights, investment in shore power, electrification and Green Shipping Corridors continues to move ahead.

The UK is set to launch its first electric shipping route, with NatPower Marine and Peel Ports Group installing shore power at Heysham Port to support zero-emission ferry services across the Irish Sea.
