Artemis Technologies, the pioneer of high-performance electric foiling vessels, has signed a landmark agreement with Noatum Maritime, a subsidiary of AD Ports Group’s Maritime & Shipping Cluster, to purchase revolutionary 100% electric Artemis EF-12 Pilot boat in the United Arab Emirates. This collaboration marks the Middle East debut of Artemis’ cutting-edge electric foiling technology.
The vessel supports the UN’s Sustainable Development goals and United Arab Emirates’ Net Zero by 2050. Equipped with cutting-edge battery technology, the vessel offers zero-emission propulsion, making it an ideal choice for port operations.
With a top speed of up to 30 knots and a cruising speed of 25 knots, the Artemis EF-12 Foiling Pilot boat offers high-performance electric operations. Leveraging Artemis Technologies’ eFoiler® technology, the vessel represents a significant advancement in maritime transport. Hydrofoils lift the vessel’s hull above the water, reducing drag, optimising energy usage, creating minimal wake and increasing crew comfort.
Dr Iain Percy OBE, CEO of Artemis Technologies said: We are proud to support Noatum Maritime in their continued efforts to bring sustainable maritime solutions to the Middle East. The acquisition of the Artemis EF-12 Pilot boat marks a significant milestone in addressing the region’s growing demand for high-performance, zero operational emission vessels. Our Artemis eFoiler® technology is setting new standards in the global maritime industry, offering energy-efficient vessels that produce zero emissions in operation and helping to enhance operational efficiency. We look forward to working together to bring clean maritime technology to revolutionise to their maritime operations across the United Arab Emirates.
