How was the world’s first zero emission high-speed ferry realized?

In this seminar, we will hear from the enabling partners of the groundbreaking TrAM project. Here, Medstraum – the world’s first zero-emission high-speed passenger vessel was developed through advanced modular production. New manufacturing methods are lowering production and engineering costs. The project is revolutionary both in terms of zero-emission technologies and manufacturing methods.

When: 09:00-11:30 – Thursday 22 September 2022
Where: Scandic Stavanger City, Reidar Berges Gate 7, 4013 Stavanger
