VULKAN Hybrid Architect

VULKAN as hybrid architect on the way to the maritime energy transition

Climate change and the energy transition are among the greatest challenges of our time. Under the motto "We ensure that systems work better." we, as a technology company, are also making our contribution to global decarbonization by entering the market for hybrid and electric drives - a major step that is in line with VULKAN's sustainable corporate policy and self-image as a system supplier and problem solver. This is because we also strive to provide customized solutions in the field of hybrid and electric propulsion systems that are adapted to the needs of owners and shipyards.

An architect is the one who makes the customer's dreams come true. VULKAN, as a hybrid architect, has the same goal: to turn what the owner wants for his boat into reality. With decades of experience in the design, manufacture and commissioning of complex systems, we bring with us the prerequisites to take a leading role in this market sector and equip boats in such a way that they are powered in a way that is as resource-efficient as it is reliable and comfortable.
