Kathryn speaks with Fullers360 CE Mike Horne, who is overseeing a project to amp-up decarbonised commuter crossings across the Waitematā Harbour.
A hydrogen hybrid ferry and two Crown-funded electric ferries are planned for Auckland Harbour crossings.
Auckland ferry operator Fullers360 plans to launch a privately funded hybrid ferry on the water next year, a year ahead of the fully electric models.
The Government says it expects the 200-person all-electric ferries for Auckland Transport's inner and mid-harbour services to be launched in 2024.
