Applied Expertise - Reference Projects from VULKAN

Whether harbor ships, passenger ferries, water buses or yachts, VULKAN's experienced team of experts in the field of Hybrid and Electric Solutions can already demonstrate a multitude of successfully completed reference projects.  

Depending on the project, VULKAN offers and provides a wide range of services and products, from product design to product delivery to mechanical integration and installation or system planning for retrofitting. Both, hybrid and fully electric propulsion systems, are used in the ships (re)built with VULKAN support.

In addition, VULKAN has been maintaining its own ship for some time and is converting it to hybrid drive technology for demonstration purposes. The former passenger ship will be used in the future to demonstrate the possibilities of hybrid and fully electric drives to customers.
