Built by Sanmar<\/strong>, the SVITZER INGRID has become Denmark’s<\/strong> first fully electric tugboat. Named by Queen Mary<\/strong>, the vessel is expected to save up to 900 tons of CO\u00b2 annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a ceremony in Copenhagen<\/strong>, the capital of Denmark<\/strong>, the country’s first all-electric tugboat, SVITZER INGRID, was officially named by Queen Mary<\/strong>. The event, attended by over 100 guests from the maritime sector, also featured Turkish Sanmar Shipyards<\/strong>, which built the tugboat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sanmar<\/strong> is a world leader in producing zero-emission, fully electric tugboats. With this new vessel built for its long-term partner SVITZER<\/strong>, the company has once again solidified its leadership in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both High-Performing and Zero-EmissionSVITZER INGRID is based on the ElectRA 2500SX<\/strong> design, which was developed exclusively for Sanmar<\/strong> by the Canadian<\/strong> naval engineering firm Robert Allan Ltd<\/strong>. The tugboat is 25.4 meters long, 12.86 meters wide, and has a draft of 5.40 meters. Equipped with an 1,808 kWh battery system, FFV1 fire-fighting equipment, and a 70-ton bollard pull, the vessel can perform 90% of its operations on battery power alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This technology is expected to reduce carbon emissions in the \u00d6resund<\/strong> region by 600-900 tons annually. A single one-hour charge from shore power\u2014sourced from renewable energy\u2014is sufficient for daily operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SVITZER INGRID is the 30th tugboat Sanmar<\/strong> has delivered to SVITZER<\/strong>. It is also the ninth fully electric tugboat produced by the company and the first electric vessel in SVITZER’s<\/strong> global fleet. Sanmar\u2019s<\/strong> fully electric ElectRA<\/strong> tugboats are already in service in Europe<\/strong>, North America<\/strong>, and Latin America<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sanmar<\/strong> states that it has built more than half of the world’s fully electric tugboats at its environmentally friendly shipyards in Turkey<\/strong>. With this vessel delivered to Denmark<\/strong>\u2014following previous deliveries to Canada<\/strong>, Chile<\/strong>, and Norway<\/strong>\u2014the company continues to set global standards in sustainable maritime transport. Additionally, six new electric tugboats are currently under construction, including four units for BOTA\u015e<\/strong>, Turkey’s<\/strong> state-owned energy company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
