        Ampere
        Ferry
        Norway

        The world's first electrical car and passenger ferry

        • ”Ampere” is the world's first electrical car and passenger ferry powered by batteries – operated by Norwegian ship owner Norled.

        • Built in conjunction with shipbuilder Fjellstrand, Siemens installed the complete electric propulsion system and put up charging stations with lithium-ion batteries which are charged from hydro power.

        • Due to the change to battery, the ship owner Norled reduces the cost of fuel by up to 60%.
