Congratulations to SAAM Towage on the commissioning of Latin America's first electric tugboat! Corvus Energy is proud to have been selected to supply the energy storage system for this ground-breaking vessel and, likewise, for SAAM's two electric tugs operating in Vancouver. All three vessels are fully electric, ElectRA tugboats based on an exclusive design from naval architects Robert Allan Ltd. and built by Sanmar A.S.

We’re one step closer to commissioning Latin America’s first electric tugboat! Latin America is set to receive its first electric tug thanks to an agreement between ENAP and SAAM. The vessel was successfully launched in Türkiye’s Tuzla Bay and will soon reach Chile’s Puerto de Chacabuco. This milestone is part of our commitment to increasingly sustainable operations. By adding this third electric tug to our fleet, we will reduce CO2 emissions by 100% compared to current operations.
