Electric pod propulsion applied to boost electric tugs
A ‘strategic partnership’ has been announced between Damen Shipyards and AAAPropulsion, the Dutch electric marine propulsion company, to apply its technology to Damen’s electric tugs.Fitted underneath the hull, the A-Pod, says AAAPropulsion, reduces drag and increases efficiency while improving ship stability with its lower centre of gravity.
