Earlier this month, a brand-new, 130-meter-long vessel made a silent departure on the Derwent River in Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, Australia. Absent were the thunderous rumbles of diesel engines or the billowing exhaust plumes; instead, only the soft, rhythmic hum of waterjet propellers slicing through the water was audible. Dubbed "Hull 096," this vessel glided away from the dock under its own power for the very first time, signifying the official commencement of the world's largest battery-electric ship's port trial voyage phase. This milestone also marks the inaugural real-world test for a ship of this magnitude to be propelled exclusively by battery power, a feat that underscores a significant leap forward in maritime technology.
