Electrical propulsion is achieved by propulsion shafts and propellers, or by using azimuth thrusters. These electrically driven propellers can be mounted on a steerable pod and can rotate and tilt in any direction, making the ship highly manoeuvrable. Furthermore, a high voltage power generation system enables efficient utilisation of power, distributed across both propulsion and ship services.

Shipping today is increasingly dependent on digital solutions.
