Motril Places OPS Inside a Wider Mediterranean Growth Plan

Motril's EUR 95.22 million investment programme extends shore power to ferry, freight and cruise quays while adding logistics and Ro-Ro capacity.
The Port of Motril is framing electrification as part of a broader Mediterranean growth strategy. Its 2027-2030 investment programme is reported at EUR 95.22 million, combining public and private investment for new logistics areas, Ro-Ro berths and OPS deployment.
After earlier work at the Levante and Costa quays, the port plans to extend shore power to the Azucenas berths, which handle ferry and freight traffic, and the Dique quay, serving larger cruise vessels. The result is a port plan that links capacity, connectivity and cleaner berthing rather than treating OPS as a bolt-on facility.
Key Information and Statistics
EUR 95.22 million 2027-2030 plan; EUR 40.43 million public investment; EUR 54.79 million private investment; Azucenas and Dique quays included.
Motril offers a Mediterranean case worth watching. Smaller and mid-sized ports can use electrification to strengthen both environmental credibility and commercial positioning, particularly where ferry, Ro-Ro, logistics and cruise functions overlap.
