The Finnish seaport will receive money from the EU's Connecting Europe Facility within the 23-FI-TG-Arctic SSE project to set up an onshore power supply facility on the new autumn 2023-opened quay.
Once the investment is up and running, two ships will be able to draw power from the shore concurrently.
"The Port of Kemi rejoices the granting decision and that the importance of the green transition of the European Union's northernmost general harbour is acknowledged," the port company shared.
Wega helped the Port of Kemi in preparing the project application.
