Two off 408 kWh air-cooled battery packs from Corvus Energy charging by diesel generators while operating in diesel-electric mode. Victoria of Wight has an asymmetrical design because of the operation route and port condition. Four off Voith Schneider propellers used because of high maneuvering capability that required to approaching and leaving the port.
