The all-new foiling CANDELA P-30—the world’s fastest all-electric passenger ship—will hit Stockholm’s waterways in 2022, shuttling passengers to and from the archipelago above the waves without wakes, noise, and CO2 emissions. Swedish tech company Candela will bring to Stockholm, Sweden— fast all-electric commuter ferries that quietly and efficiently carry passengers at speeds up to 30 knots. The intention of the new ferries is to eventually replace the city’s aging fleet of 60 diesel boats that serve commuters and visitors to and from the vast, 30,000-island archipelago that stretches from the city center. The foiling P-30 will hold the distinction of setting several world records. It will be the longest-range electric passenger ship, as well as the fastest,
and will also be the most energy efficient fast ship ever built. The P-30 can operate in urban waterways at higher speeds than traditional passenger boats due because it creates virtually no wake that would otherwise damage nearby vessels or property.
