A PLUG FESTIVAL AT CANNES HARBOUR

The CCI Nice Côte d''Azur Riviera Ports company operates four harbours: Villefranche, Golfe-Juan, Nice and Cannes.

For more than ten years now, the harbour management team of the CCI Nice Côte d''Azur and MARECHAL ELECTRIC''s marine specialist Grégoire DAHER, have been working in partnership to install the infrastructure for supplying electrical power throughout the harbour. This partnership has resulted in the installation of fixed and mobile power points to provide the harbour with a flexible and reliable electrical power-supply system capable of supporting peaks in demand such as the Cannes Film Festival, the Cannes Yachting Festival and the Cannes Christmas Market. This collaboration has included the renovation of the harbour equipment on the Albert Edouard pier, Pantiero Quay and esplanade, Saint Pierre Quay and the mobile floating pontoons, as well as the Max Laubeuf and du Large Quays. Each of these areas is dedicated to a different activity, such as yachting, pleasure-boating, sales or events, and so each needs an electrical power system which is designed to meet its individual power needs.

Powering the harbour

A concession contract, awarded by the Alpes Maritimes General Council, means that the CCI Nice Côte d''Azur is responsible for the operation of Cannes harbour until 2021. Patrice DE CSIKY''s Technical Services team has the essential technical skills to install and maintain the equipment, including divers and electricians specialising in high-voltage maintenance and access control. Patrice De Csiky also supervises the harbour installation and renovation projects which includes work on the electrical power system. It was not only the wide product range which persuaded Patrice De Csiky to select MARECHAL®, but also the guaranteed quality, reliability and ease of use that each product offers.
