The article discusses British Columbia and Norway's efforts in electrifying their ferry networks for more sustainable transportation. British Columbia's extensive ferry network, operated by BC Ferries, is undergoing a transformation with the introduction of new major vessels featuring diesel-battery hybrid power plants and compatibility with biodiesel. This incremental approach aligns with the long-term goal of transitioning to fully electric ferries. The article contrasts British Columbia's strategy with Norway's larger and more electrified ferry network, showcasing different approaches to maritime electrification. BC Ferries' decision to reject LNG as a fuel choice due to its high emissions and cost, in addition to the limitations of ammonia and hydrogen, demonstrates a commitment to lower emissions and environmental sustainability. The article also sheds light on the influence of the LNG lobby in British Columbia and the challenges faced in decarbonizing the maritime industry. Overall, the focus is on the importance of making informed decisions regarding fuel choices in the transition to greener maritime transportation.
