With Sustainable Development Goals and the European Green Deal at the forefront of future plans for ports and shipping, Coastlink’s Gold Sponsor – NAVTEK Naval Technologies Inc – introduce the world’s first re-chargeable all electric battery powered Zero Emission Tug – ZEETUG30.

Designed in 2019 and reliant solely on battery power for bollard pull, NAVTEK launched the first ZEETUG at the Port of Istanbul in 2020, following successful sea trials. Taking the next step in helping ports reduce GHG emissions is the key to ZEETUG’s success and NAVTEK have confirmed that a further 3 vessels are currently on order.

With 85% lower operating costs due to the full electric propulsion systems, ZEETUG30 delivers real benefit for operators. ZEETUG’s Smart Tug Energy Management System is also designed and built by NAVTEK with the objective of optimising the electric power consumption and extending its driving range.
