located at Schlossplatz 9, 26603 Aurich (grantor) under grant number 45 BT008001 for the installation of a shore power system on\
both sides on board the cruise ship AIDAnova.\
The funding project is summarised as follows:\
The AIDAnova will begin voyages from German ports offering shore power supply in the coming 2023 summer season. To make\
use of the facility, the AIDAnova is to be equipped with a shore power system on both sides of the ship. On the starboard side, there\
is already a prepared room and a shell door. In order to make shore power usable in Hamburg and Kiel, among other places, a\
further room is to be created on the port side with a new shell door. Two HVSC switchboards must be installed and wired. A section\
for the shore power system has to be added to the main switchboard. In ad-dition, an adaptation of the ship's automation and power\
management system has to be made.\
