GE Vernova is to equip the UK's new Fleet Solid Support (FSS) vessels for the Ministry of Defence (MOD) with hybrid-electric propulsion technology

The 216-meter-long Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) vessels will be designed with a focus on minimizing carbon emissions.

' Equipped with energy-saving technologies to reduce power consumption, they will be adaptable to use low-carbon, non-fossil fuels and future sustainable energy sources ' says the group.

' GE Vernova's wealth of experience in naval engineering, exemplified by its contributions to the Royal Fleet Auxiliary's Tide Class tankers, makes the company a reliable partner for this important program,' said Andy Cooper, managing director of GE Vernova's Power Conversion business, UK.
