    $26.3 million port electrification project delivers cleaner, quieter shore power to Whittier

    ANCHORAGE, Alaska—The Alaska Energy Authority (AEA), Chugach Electric Association, Inc., and Carnival Corporation today announced continued progress on the Whittier Shore Power Project, a port electrification investment that enables cruise ships calling on Whittier to plug into shore‑based electrical power instead of operating diesel generators while docked. Crews are actively constructing the project, with operations expected to begin in spring 2027.
