ABB receives go-ahead for third Washington State Ferries hybrid vessel

ABB has received a Notice to Proceed from Washington State Ferries (WSF) to supply and integrate the power and propulsion system for a third hybrid-electric newbuild ferry. The authorization extends ABB’s involvement in the fleet modernization programme from two vessels to three. It follows the company’s earlier selection as propulsion systems supplier, under an agreement covering two initial vessels and an option for a third. The third ferry will feature ABB’s Onboard DC Grid and Power and Energy Management System (PEMS). These technologies are designed to improve power distribution, integrate energy storage and manage available power sources according to operating conditions.
