en.Wedoany.com Reported - Danish ferry operator Molslinjen and Australian shipbuilder Incat Tasmania have recently released a new video showing the construction progress of Molslinjen's new electric Ro-Pax ferries at Incat's Hobart facility. Incat stated that upon delivery, these two vessels will become the largest battery-electric ferries in Europe, operating on the Kattegat route between Jutland and Zealand, transporting thousands of passengers daily.

Each of these two new catamarans is 129 meters long and 30.5 meters wide, scheduled to enter service on the Kattegat route in 2027 and 2028 respectively. Each vessel can accommodate 1,483 passengers and 500 cars, equipped with a 45,000 kWh battery pack and a total installed engine power exceeding 52,000 kW. This configuration will enable each ferry to reach speeds of over 40 knots.

Incat Chairman Robert Clifford stated: "Previously, electric ferries were limited to short, low-speed routes. We are now delivering a completely new class of vessel—high-speed, high-capacity, low-emission ferries capable of operating on some of the world's busiest routes."
