AET, Fleetzero to develop plug-in hybrid-electric vessel

It is expected to be the world's longest-range hybrid-electric vessel.

AET and Fleetzero, a developer and manufacturer of modular marine batteries for hybrid and electric ships, have signed an agreement to develop the world’s longest-range plug-in hybrid-electric vessel.

Under the agreement, one of AET’s Lightering Support Vessels 1 will be retrofitted with a plug-in hybrid-electric system.

The vessel will operate primarily on battery power, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 82% compared to conventional low-speed vehicles on a tank-to-wake basis.

The signing took place at the AET Offshore office in Galveston, Texas, with representatives from both companies present.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
