Norsepower has revealed the world’s first tilting rotor sails, which will be installed on a Sea-Cargo ro-ro ferry.
Two of its largest 35-metre rotors will be installed on the 8,843-dwt SC Connector (built 1997). The vessel operates in the North Sea, which provides some of the most favourable wind conditions for rotor sails.
The SC Connector's route involves navigating under multiple bridges and power lines.
