SCiB™ has been adopted by Damen Shipyards Group N.V. for the electric ferry

SCiB™ is used as the power source for the electric ferry which is designed and built by Damen Shipyards Group N.V. (Damen Ferry 2306E3). The battery system has acquired the DNV-GL standard of the ship certification body, which means not only reduces pollution due to exhaust gas and fuel cost of ships but also it has been evaluated as a highly reliable battery system.

Hybrid propulsion ship

Utashima, a steel freight ship, is Japan’s first hybrid freight coaster using lithium-ion batteries.
During normal cruising, lithium-ion batteries are charged with the electricity generated by the main engine in the high-efficiency region. When the ship needs to run for a short distance, for example, in a port, it turns off the main engine and runs on battery energy, thereby contributing to the realization of zero-carbon ports.
* Owned by Mukaishima Dock and operated by NS United Naiko Kaiun Kaisha, Ltd.
