ABB wins contract to supply hybrid-electric systems for four new BC Ferries, set for delivery in 2029.
ABB has secured a contract to supply power, propulsion, and control systems for four new hybrid-electric double-ended ferries for BC Ferries, set for delivery from 2029.
The vessels, built in China, will use ABB’s gearless Azipod propulsion, an Onboard DC Grid, and up to 70 MWh of battery storage, enabling hybrid and future zero-emission operation.
They will run on biofuel or renewable diesel and connect to a high-capacity shore charging system over 60 MW, allowing rapid recharging.
The project aims to reduce emissions and underwater noise, supporting cleaner, quieter ferry service in the Strait of Georgia.
