Due to the hybrid diesel and battery electric power system, the vessel can sail on battery power alongside or at low speeds.
As a result, the ship consumes less fuel, which reduces diesel engine running hours and
hybrid diesel and carbon emissions.
The Electric Hybrid technology also minimizes engine wear and maintenance expenses.
