Albion Marine Solutions has developed its own proprietary design of a zero emissions electric, renewable energy powered ferry, "Albion Zero".

The ferry has been designed in line to meet the latest as well as upcoming environmental legislations, making it a future-proof solution. Albion Zero’s sustainable design is also compatible to work with solar power and tidal power to charge the onboard batteries. The ferry is designed to be fitted with a wide range of Albion Marine’s latest technical solutions that will work seamlessly to provide optimal level of reliability and efficiency. The ferry would utilise the latest developments in this domain such as wireless charging and automatic mooring capabilities.

Albion Zero’s design has been kept modular to suit different types of vessel sizes and propulsion mechanisms. Although, it can be implemented globally, it has been designed to replace/ convert the huge number of diesel-hydraulic river-crossing ferries in Canada. This concept is well suited for remote, indigenous, and Northern communities which have no grid power around the ferry crossing area to charge the batteries. The adaptability to solar and tidal power gives Albion Zero a cutting edge in the river crossing ferry market.
