One of the key challenges of sustainable transitions is a deep reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in transport. Therefore, new propulsion systems are being improved—mainly hybrid and electric ones. In the last five years, they have been increasingly used on ferries in ports and on coastal waters. The short route and the use of the same ferry ports facilitate the use of hybrid or electric propulsion. The basis of this article is the assumption that the development in ferry shipping electrification is a result of interactions between technical and operational features as well as geographical and economic conditions. Its purpose, however, is to identify these features and conditions based on four case studies of hybrid or electric ferry implementations on port or coastal routes. The final solutions for each ferry crossing are the result of a specific configuration of mentioned earlier features and conditions. All analyzed case studies concerned Europe, which is why there is a need for further research into this type of investment. Along with their spread in other parts of the world, it will be possible to verify the identified catalog of conditions.
