Maritime Electric has reassured residents of Prince Edward Island that the recent implementation of electric shore power connections for cruise ships at local ports will not lead to any power interruptions or instability. The utility company confirmed that the island’s electricity supply will remain reliable despite cruise ships using these shore power facilities while docked.

Passengers aboard visiting cruise vessels can now benefit from the availability of electric plug-in services without concern for any negative impact on the community’s power system. This development reflects a new approach to supporting cruise ships at Prince Edward Island ports without affecting the electrical

needs of local residents.
