First of two new electric ferries for Molslinjen put into production
FerryCemre Shipyard, together with representatives from Molslinjen, started the construction of Alslinjen's new electric ferry with a traditional steel cut ceremony.
The OSK-ShipTech-designed all-electric ferry will be 116.8 metres long, have a capacity for 600 passengers and 188 cars and will serve the Fynshav – Bøjden route in Denmark.
It will be prepared for autonomous sailing between ports – with automatic docking and charging at the quay and will have Echandia batteries with a 3.1 MWh capacity which can be fully charged in 20-25 minutes.
Alslinjen's ferry is planned to be ready for operation in September 2024.
Cemre will also build a sistership destined for Samsølinjen with a slightly larger battery capacity at 3.8 MWh due to the longer Ballen - Kalundborg route it will operate. Production of this is scheduled to begin 1 April 2023, with delivery set for December 2024.
