The world’s largest all-electric ferry, has connected the ports of Søby and Fynshav on the islands of Aerø and Als, in southern Denmark. 

E-ferry Ellen, capable of carrying approximately 30 vehicles and 200 passengers, is powered by a battery system with an unprecedented capacity of 4.3MWh provided by Leclanché SA one of the world’s leading energy storage companies. The motor system was supplied by Danfoss Editron.

The project demonstrates that replacing fossil fuel thermal drives with clean energy, can thus contribute to the fight against global warming and pollution for the well-being of the local communities.
