Lagos is taking a major step towards fully electric waterborne transport. The Omi Eko initiative aims to transform the city's waterways with 75 electric ferries, 15 routes and 25 terminals, creating new connections across one of Africa's largest cities. We explore what this ambitious project means for urban mobility and where innovative electric ferry solutions like Hyke could play a role.
Dhaka's congested roads are putting increasing pressure on the city's transport network. Yet an alternative already exists in the heart of the city: its waterways. Could connecting the Hatirjheel and Gulshan–Baridhara lakes, supported by fully electric ferries, offer commuters a cleaner, more reliable way to travel?
How renewable energy and electric ferries could create cleaner, smarter transport on Bordeaux’s Garonne River.
Could electric ferries help protect Venice? Discover how renewable energy, fast charging and low-wake vessels could reduce congestion, emissions and damage to the city’s historic canals.
How Cities Move #6: Antwerp-Bruges. As cities and ports work to reduce emissions, the focus is shifting from individual vessels to entire transport routes. Discover how green shipping corridors, port electrification and electric ferry networks are helping reshape maritime transport across Europe.
he Mersey is one of the UK's most demanding ferry environments, with strong tidal currents and a tidal range of up to 10 metres. Could battery-electric ferries operate reliably in these conditions? We explore the engineering, infrastructure and operational considerations behind a zero-emission Mersey crossing.
