Ep.2: Could Crew Transfer Vessels be battery powered?


Listen Later

Finding alternative means of powering vessels is a key part of offshore wind’s strategy to decarbonise its supply chain. Many service vessels use hundreds of litres of fuel every day, so clearly there is an opportunity for improvement. But can fully electric vessels deliver the performance required, and what needs to change to achieve this?

In this episode, we hear from Leo Hambro, CEO and co-founder of Tidal Transit, and a champion of the electrification of CTV's. Tidal Transit has ambitions to bring the first fully electric CTV to the market. We discuss some of the challenges to bringing battery power to service vessels, as well how Leo got started in offshore wind.
