Carnival installing solar power at two Barcelona cruise terminals

Carnival and Port of Barcelona teamed up with a Catalonia solar provider to install 1,350 panels at Palacruceros & Helix Cruise Center.

The roof-mounted solar panels, a first for the port, are capable of supplying more than 100% of the energy needed to power daily operations and will reduce overall electricity consumption.

Installation work began in July at Palacruceros and the full project across both terminals is set for completion by the end of 2024.
