The Board of Directors of the Port of Barcelona has approved awarding the construction and operation of the future G cruise terminal at the Adossat dock to Royal Caribbean Group and Cruise Terminals International, CTI.
The proposal for the construction of the G Cruise Terminal in Barcelona has been evaluated as excellent by the technicians in charge of the tender, despite being the only one submitted in the public competition.
They highlight their commitment to sustainability, both in energy and environmental terms, by including spaces for onshore power supply systems (OPS) that will reduce cruise ship emissions.
The new terminal is expected to be operational by spring 2027, coinciding with the closure of the WTC South Terminal in 2026. This project complies with the agreements established in 2018 between the Port of Barcelona and the City Council, limiting the number of terminals to seven.
Designed to maximize energy efficiency and minimize its environmental impact, Terminal G will incorporate renewable energy, such as photovoltaic panels, to achieve a zero emissions balance.
It will focus on serving homeport traffic, with special attention to passenger comfort and sustainability both within the terminal and in its connection with the city, airport and train.
In addition, the bidding process has begun to build a sea breakwater that will serve as a storage area for dredged materials.
This measure reflects the Port of Barcelona's commitment to the circular economy and sustainable resource management, enabling the recycling of materials and avoiding unnecessary transport.
