Norway's largest zero-emission ferry, Hinnøy.
Developed by the Norwegian Ship Design, the double-ended car and passenger ferry Hinnøy, with the designation NSD120CFc, will normally operate as a Zero Emission Vessel in exposed waters on the entire 1-hour transit of the Bognes – Lødingen route in the Northern part of Norway at a speed of 13-14 knots. The transit time (and speed) is bringing a new record among the Norwegian Battery Ferries.
The vessel will normally operate battery-electric with all power originating from the grid onshore through high-capacity automated charging connections. In case shore power is unavailable biodiesel generators will provide sufficient power for normal operation.
The double-ended ferry shall be arranged with two completely independent propulsion and power systems. The systems shall be arranged so that after any single fault, incl. fire and flooding, a minimum of one of the two independent power and propulsion systems will remain operational.
117 m long Hinnøy with 399 passengers capacity will be built according to the DNV class rules and carry the Norwegian flag.
