As informed, Spanish ferry operator Baleària will operate the two catamaran ferries solely on electric propulsion throughout the 18-mile voyage between Tarifa in the south of Spain and Tangier, Morocco at speeds of up to 26 knots.
Once the newbuilds are operational, the company will be able to implement the first green corridor between Spain and Morocco.
