Saronic Ferries has announced its collaboration with C-Job Naval Architects for the development of the first fully electric passenger ferry to ply Greek waters. As emphasized, the electric ferry will connect Piraeus with the islands of Aegina and Agistri in the Saronic Gulf and is expected to join the company’s fleet in 2026.
According to the company, this is the first move towards the goal of operating a fleet exclusively comprising zero-emission ships by 2040 for all its destinations.
C-Job Naval Architects
It is noted that C-Job Naval Architects is an international independent ship design company that aims to lead the maritime industry towards sustainability with dedication and ingenuity.
C-Job delivered an initial design to Saronic Ferries following an extensive sustainable fuel feasibility study. The zero-emission ro-ro passenger ferry has a capacity of 800 passengers and will sport a variety of sustainable feature, including fully electric propulsion. The ship will recharge in the port of Piraeus.
The design will include state-of-the-art features in energy-saving solutions and top-line interior design, offering passengers maximum comfort without burdening the environment. The ship is expected to join the fleet in 2026, sailing between Piraeus and the islands of Aegina and Agistri, provided that the required infrastructure is in place at the port of Piraeus.
