Streamlining Electrification: A holistic approach, guided by expert partners, is key to successful marine electrification
When the captain of a high-speed ferry first approached Twin Disc, he didn’t ask about battery specifications. He wanted to know if the system could be trusted to operate reliably.
That type of question is common when discussing marine electrification. Many vessel operators focus on safety, reliability and long-term viability. The Twin Disc team works with those transitioning from mechanical systems to electric or hybrid propulsion. The shift involves more than just replacing an engine – it requires rethinking how power is delivered, managed and maintained.
Electrification is not a leap into the unknown. It’s a series of smart, deliberate steps, rooted in vessel realities and guided by engineering insight. The process begins with clear information, accurate requirements and informed decision-making. With the right plan, the right partner and a clear path, marine electrification is not just possible, it’s practical.
