Evoy is collaborating to develop electric propulsion projects including a high-speed harbour craft for Singapore.
The company, which specialises in electric inboard and outboard motor systems, has signed a letter of intent with Lita Ocean, SeaTech Solutions International (S) and Pascal Technologies to develop a fully electric passenger harbour craft.
Features of the Singapore harbour craft will include integration of cutting-edge technologies such as advanced electric propulsion and air lubrication systems to maximise energy efficiency and performance.
The collaboration will build on previous advancements in electric harbour crafts in Singapore, combining the companies’ strengths in marine electrification.
“As a proud partner in this Norway-Singapore initiative, Evoy is excited to bring our high-performance electric propulsion systems to Singapore’s maritime landscape,” explained Mads Roland-Glimsholt, business development manager at Evoy.
We are committed to setting new standards in sustainable harbour craft.

“We are committed to setting new standards in sustainable harbour craft and working with our partners to support a greener future in maritime transport.”
Evoy has also signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Yinson GreenTech which aims to foster collaboration in marine electrification across Asia.
The MoU will aim to combine Yinson GreenTech’s electrification solutions with Evoy’s electric propulsion systems to support the conversion of internal combustion engine (ICE) vessels to electric power and foster the development of new electric vessels.
The partnership is aimed at advancing the transition to a more sustainable maritime industry, with a shared goal of exploring new opportunities, collaborating on upcoming projects, and playing a key role in the broader transition to greener shipping solutions in Asia.
The MoU was signed by Jan-Viggo Johansen, MD of marinEV at Yinson GreenTech, and Mads Roland-Glimsholt, business development manager at Evoy.
The companies say the partnerships highlight the importance of international cooperation in tackling climate challenges within the maritime industry.
