Dutch energy storage systems provider EST-Floattech has announced the delivery and commissioning of the Octopus Series battery system on the SFK Ferry Laboe.
The ferry was recently delivered to German ferry operator Schlepp- und Fährgesellschaft Kiel (SFK) by Holland Shipyards Group. It is the sixth ferry in a series of seven with which SFK has the ambition to lower its CO2 emissions.
The Laboe is equipped with 560 kWh of the Octopus High Energy system. This battery system ensures that the energy consumption remains low during the sailing, as the vessel can easily switch between generators and the battery system.
The vessel can even sail fully emission-free around the city of Kiel, where it transports commuting pedestrians and cyclists from A to B.
The system was integrated by Holland Ship Electric, which collaborated with EST-Floattech on the ferries for SFK.
Reducing emissions with the Octopus Series
The city of Kiel in Germany is working hard to create an emission-free future. This collaboration reflects a shared vision for a cleaner, more efficient maritime industry, aligning with global efforts to reduce carbon emissions thanks to the Octopus Series battery system.
