Tersan Shipyard launched HAVILA POLARIS and HAVILA POLLUX
Tersan Shipyard simultaneously launched HAVILA POLARIS and HAVILA POLLUX which are sister vessels to HAVILA CAPELLA, the world's largest battery capacity passenger vessel delivered to its owners Havila Kystruten in November.
HAVILA POLARIS and HAVILA POLLUX are designed by HAV Ship Design and built under supervision of DNV; four Havila Passenger vessels will operate in Norway’s Bergen - Kirkenes historical coastal route. The passenger vessels will be powered by LNG and battery, providing high energy efficiency and complying with the low emission requirements.
Each vessel will have 6,500 kWh battery capacity which means they will have the record of highest battery capacity in a vessel so far. High interior standards will be provided with distinctive and well-designed accommodation areas aiming to bring the best comforts to the passengers on their Bergen – Kirkenes historical route. While the first vessel, HAVILA CAPELLA has started its operations successfully, the second vessel, HAVILA CASTOR is at delivery stage. HAVILA POLARIS and HAVILA POLLUX will follow in 2022.
