First vessel in a new low-emission ferry fleet at South Korea's Busan Port

The E-Green (이그린호; Igeulinho) is South Korea’s first state-owned all-electric ferry in operation. She will be operated by the Busan Port Authority as a "port guide vessel." Built by Kangnam Corporation, the 39.95-metre catamaran is part of a broader fleet renewal aligned with South Korea’s objective of “net zero” emissions by 2050. E-Green will embark up to 88 passengers on guided tours where they will witness some of the operations at the Port of Busan first-hand. Powered by two 1,068 kWh battery packs, the ferry operates with minimal noise and vibration during operations. The ferry will be remotely monitored, enhancing operational safety and optimizing performace. A full battery charge will be completed in as little as 90 minutes, enabling approximately two hours of operation.
