Intesa DNV - Saronic Ferries for a fleet of zero-emission ferries
Memorandum of understanding to develop an all-electric vessel
June 8, 2022
g src="/images/iMinizionotizia.gif" width="70" height="17" border="0" style="vertical-align: middle;">Classification society DNV has signed an agreement with the Greek shipping company Saronic Ferries focused on the development of an all-electric ferry to be used on domestic sea routes in the Argo-Saronic Gulf area. "We - explained Joseph Lefaki, partner of Saronic Ferries - we manage the largest fleet in the Saronic Islands, which find a few miles from the port of Piraeus, which is the most large port of Greece, where decarbonization matters most. Our goal is to collaborate with stakeholders forward-looking, like DNV, and make the first ferry fully electric in Greece, for the Saronic Islands'. "Our purpose - added George Papaioannides, partner of Saronic Ferries - is to operate a fleet totally emission-free by 2040 to all our destinations'.
