ENERCON and EMS Chartering have entered into a partnership for the chartering of the wind turbine manufacturer’s own multi-purpose wind-assisted vessel E-Ship 1.
The cooperation increases the presence of the wind-assisted cargo ship on the charter market and thus leads to an improved utilization of its capacity. In addition to wind turbine components, the E-Ship 1 also regularly transports non-ENERCON cargo on its worldwide voyages.
At the same time, the vessel meets all the requirements for the safe transportation of all types of breakbulk cargo. The vessel has 3,600 square meters of floor space below deck, three decks (triple deck) and is also equipped with two cranes with a lifting capacity of 90 metric tons (SWL) each. Combined, they can lift up to 180 metric tons.
In the past, we still had capacity available on some voyages. However, we are interested in optimal capacity utilization – if only for reasons of sustainability, to which we are naturally committed as a renewable energy company.
…said Hendrik Peterburs, Vice President Global Logistics at ENERCON.
