The new 42-metre DP2 fast crew boats will support offshore energy support operations in the Caspian Sea, with construction now under way at Baku Shipyard.
Together they will work to accelerate product development, enhance global market reach, and deliver innovative, safe, and high-efficiency energy storage solutions for the global shipping industry.
Technology group Wärtsilä has been selected as the electrical integrator for a major battery extension project for the Wasaline ROPAX ferry ‘Aurora Botnia’.
The agreement includes basic and detail design for the “Next Generation Med” class vessels, which will be deployed across key Mediterranean routes under the Grimaldi Lines and Minoan Lines brands.
The new design is an evolution of the already state-of-the-art Superstar-class vessels, but with enhanced quality of transport for both rolling cargo and passengers in the Baltic Sea.
The agreement is designed to ensure optimal performance of the power systems onboard the company’s new LNG-fuelled ‘A Galeotta’ RoPax vessel, which will sail between Marseille and Corsica in France.
