Damen Shipyards Group is partnering with AAAPropulsion to apply the latter’s A-Pod solution to Damen’s electric tugs. The electric propulsion system will provide a significant boost in efficiency.
More market segments
Following the successful integration of the A-Pod into its electric tugs and workboats, Damen aims to expand use of the A-Pod system to other market segments. The A-Pod is suited to various applications, being available with a planetary gearbox (PG), a direct drive (DD) version, as well as the A-Pod CRP with contra rotating propellers.
