The Hybrid Boat project developed by E2C represents a significant innovation in water transport, combining advanced technologies to deliver a sustainable and efficient mobility solution. This project supports the transformation of the nautical sector through the introduction of a hybrid propulsion system that integrates electric and conventional power, reducing environmental impact and improving energy efficiency.
The hybrid system allows the vessel to operate in fully electric mode when navigating sensitive areas or at low speeds, ensuring silent and emission-free operation. For longer routes or when higher power is required, the boat can switch to conventional propulsion, offering maximum operational flexibility.
A key element of the project is the onboard energy storage system, which stores electricity generated from renewable sources. This system supplies energy for electric propulsion and onboard services, further reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
Adopting a hybrid system represents a forward-looking response to today’s environmental challenges, promoting a cleaner and more sustainable model of water transport. With this project, E2C reinforces its commitment to guiding the nautical sector toward a more sustainable future while contributing to the development of technologies adaptable to other sustainable mobility applications.
