When the Amadeus Nova was set to undergo significant upgrades, one critical aspect of this upgrade was the transition from diesel direct-driven thrusters to diesel-electric thrusters. This shift was essential to enhance the vessel’s efficiency, reduce emissions, and meet stringent environmental regulations, but it still needed to meet the same levels of luxury and comfort passengers had come to expect. To achieve these objectives, the Amadeus Nova required advanced, reliable, and efficient electric thrusters that could seamlessly integrate with the existing power systems.

As a leading provider of hybrid and electric propulsion solutions, Veth Propulsion by Twin Disc offers comprehensive expertise and support throughout the system integration process. From initial consultation and design to final commissioning and after-sales support, our team of experts collaborates closely with customers to identify the right solution for their vessel.
