The first electric short-distance ferry in California will sail in 2024

One of the most popular ferry routes in the Bay Area is turning electric. The Angel Island Ferry is collaborating with Pacific Gas and Electric Company to convert one of its vessels, The Angel Island, to an electric vehicle. As part of the agreement, PG&E will assist in the installation of charging infrastructure at the Angel Island ferry terminal and will increase electrical transmission to the facility, allowing the 59-foot-long Angel Island to transport residents and visitors without polluting San Francisco Bay. Green Yachts will undertake the process of upgrading the ship with an electric propulsion system.
