SICANIA II
Hybrid Propulsion System for Double-Ended Ferry SICANIA II
Xanthis proudly highlights its role in the construction of SICANIA II, a double-ended ferry engineered for exceptional performance, operational efficiency, and a reduced environmental footprint.
For this project, Xanthis S.A. was entrusted with the design and supply of the complete hybrid propulsion package, delivering a solution that combines reliability, maneuverability, and compliance with IMO III emissions standards.
The ferry’s hybrid propulsion system features:
-
4 x Baudouin 12M26.3 SER marine engines – fully compliant with IMO III, ensuring low emissions and sustainable power generation.
-
4 x Veth VZ900 CR VHD Azimuth Thrusters – providing precise control, smooth maneuverability, and enhanced operational flexibility.
This advanced hybrid configuration supports:
- Fuel-efficient operations, reducing energy consumption and operational costs.
- Superior maneuverability, particularly in ports and narrow waterways.
- Environmental sustainability, reinforcing Xanthis’ commitment to greener shipping solutions.
As part of our marine propulsion projects portfolio, the SICANIA II project demonstrates Xanthis’ capability to deliver cutting-edge marine engines, azimuth thrusters, and fully integrated hybrid systems tailored to the needs of modern ferry operations.
