Electrifying transport has been a challenge in the commercial aviation and freight shipping industry.
However, change has to happen.

Even though this company is still in the design phase (aiming for a 2024 roll-out), it is a beginning of a new era and a massive step towards a more sustainable shipping industry. It opens up the idea for emission-free cruise ships too.
This gives us butterflies, we love seeing the game-changing solutions companies are developing!
