What They Do

Corvus Energy specializes in energy storage systems (ESS) utilizing modular lithium-ion batteries tailored for the maritime industry. Their product lineup includes the Corvus Orca Energy system, which is designed for hybrid applications across more than 250 vessels, and the Corvus Dolphin Energy NXT GEN, which caters to high-capacity all-electric ferries. Additionally, they offer Blue Whale LFP batteries for large-scale offshore applications and Hydrogen PEM fuel cell systems like the Corvus Pelican, developed in collaboration with Toyota to enhance vessel range. These innovative systems integrate advanced battery packs with intelligent energy management, enabling zero-emission or hybrid propulsion in demanding maritime environments, suitable for a variety of vessels including ferries, offshore service vessels, and cruise ships (source: geekwire.com).

Projects & Track Record

Corvus Energy has achieved significant milestones with over 1,300 ESS installations globally, totaling 1,300 MWh of capacity. Notable projects include the deployment of the first Corvus Pelican Fuel cell system on the Norwegian fishing training vessel Skulebas in November 2023. Additionally, they secured a contract for the world's largest all-electric fast ferry by Incat, which will utilize 40 MW of Corvus Dolphin Energy NXT GEN for service between Argentina and Uruguay, awarded in November 2023. Furthermore, they announced the world's first fully electric offshore vessel equipped with 25 MW of Blue Whale LFP batteries in March 2025, enabling full-day zero-emission operations. These projects underscore Corvus Energy's commitment to advancing maritime decarbonization and expanding their footprint in the industry (source: justclimate.com).

Recent Developments

In the past two years, Corvus Energy has made headlines with a $60 million growth capital raise on October 9, 2025, led by Morgan Stanley's 1GT strategy, alongside Just Climate and J. Lauritzen. This funding is aimed at expanding production capabilities, enhancing product innovation, and penetrating new markets in response to the increasing demand for maritime decarbonization solutions. Major contracts won include the aforementioned 40 MW all-electric fast ferry and the first Corvus Pelican fuel cell system on Skulebas, both announced in late 2023. Additionally, the company is set to open a new office in Shanghai, China, in March 2025, further solidifying its global presence (source: justclimate.com).

Hiring occurs at key locations such as the headquarters in Bergen, manufacturing facilities in Porsgrunn, Norway, and Richmond, Canada, as well as the new Fairhaven, Washington plant, which opened in January 2023 and initially employs around 20 people. The company culture emphasizes maritime expertise combined with battery innovation, fostering a dedicated global team that supports local operations and rapid scaling through strategic investments (source: corvusenergy.com).
