Schlepp- und Fährgesellschaft Kiel awards additional fully electric ferry to Holland Shipyards Group
With the previous delivery of a hybrid and fully electric ferry and a contract for three additional hybrid ferries ongoing, Schlepp- und Fährgesellschaft Kiel (SFK) has just awarded an additional fully electric ferry to Holland Shipyards Group.
The design of the additional ferry, to be named WELLINGDORF, is in line with the previously delivered vessel DUSTERNBROOK. The ferry will measure 24,70 m by 6,50 m and is completely emission-free.
She will entirely be powered by battery power with an installed capacity of 1.092 kWh. Besides the battery pack the vessel has 20 solar panels on the roof to contribute in feeding the on-board electrical system.
The WELLINGDORF is expected to enter service mid 2022.
