摘要: With customers around the world looking for low- or zero-emissions alternatives to fossil-fuel propulsion, Incat Tasmania believes it has the wherewithal to make that transition. In fact, the company and one of its customers is changing course for a vessel already under construction. Buquebus, one of Incat's longtime customers based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, recently asked Incat to "investigate the possibility of replacing the LNG powerplant with a battery-electric solution," for a 130-meter (426′) catamaran that will carry 2,100 passengers and 226 vehicles, according to Incat. When the transition from LNG to batteries is completed, the vessel would be the world's largest zero-emissions ferry operating on any route anywhere. "The customer wants this to happen, Incat wants this to happen, and whilst there are matters to be finalized, I am extremely confident that Incat can deliver this groundbreaking ship," said Incat group chairman and founder Robert Clifford. "In my experience, unless we see something come in from left field, this is a done deal."
