The ships would be battery and diesel powered, saving around 20% of a normal ferry's carbon emissions. They also talk about recharging the batteries overnight using wind power.
I liked this quote from the Chief Executive Guy Platten in the article:
"We are focused on building for the future, so have to make sure we build sustainable ferries, which also contribute to the Scottish Government's targets on cutting climate change emissions."Or, they could follow the idiotic lead of Northlink Ferries, and just turn off an engine or two!
Ferry companies now had to develop a different mindset about the design of ships, he added.
