Rotterdam has installed the igus iMSPO Cruise, a remote-controlled shore-power socket unit that travels the full quay length to meet vessels at any berth. The grid-connected, river-cooled system eliminates diesel auxiliary use at the cruise terminal.
Why it matters for P&M: Competitor igus has landed a mobile shore-power reference at Rotterdam's cruise terminal — a visible OPS win on Cavotec's home turf.

The Port of Rotterdam has won igus' Golden Vector Award 2026 for the mobile shore-power system installed at its cruise terminal — a small-format installation supplying cruise vessels at berth. The recognition centres on the cable-management package supplied by igus, a Cavotec competitor on shore-power cable-management.
Why it matters for P&M: igus (competitor on shore-power cable-management) takes recognition at a top-tier cruise port — competitive-positioning signal.

TOC Europe opens next week in Hamburg with World Cargo News as main media partner. Several OEMs and integrators are pre-announcing product launches at the show.
Why it matters for P&M: TOC Europe is the year's main reading-the-room event for European port equipment. Competitor product launches (Conductix-Wampfler, Stemmann-Technik, ShoreLink, Igus) and integrator stand activity (Siemens, ABB Marine & Ports, PowerCon, Schneider) directly feed our pipeline picture. Walk-through priorities and any customer / competitor meeting requests should be locked in before the floor opens.
