Bergen, 6th October 2026 – Norwegian Electric Systems AS has been awarded a contract by Zamakona Shipyard Bilbao for delivery of power package and system integration to a live fish carrier for Brønnbåt Nord that is being constructed at the yard.
NES’ scope of supply includes a complete power package including electric motor for propulsion and auxiliary drive, power generator, distribution transformers, AC/DC switchboards, motor control and starters, a power management system and integration of the entire system.
NES will also support with commissioning of the system once installed on board the vessel.
"Zamakona is a familiar partner to NES, and we are delighted to welcome Brønnbåt Nord as a new customer on this project. Hybridification has become close to a default specification on newbuild live fish carriers as it delivers substantial efficiency gains. We have a solid track record in equipping such vessels with electric power systems, and we believe this was instrumental in securing this contract,” says Siv Remøy-Vangen, managing director of NES.
NES will commence engineering and procurement work in 2026, with equipment deliveries planned for 2028.
NES is a subsidiary of HAV Group ASA, which is listed on Euronext Growth Oslo.
