Maritime charging

Ships with electric propulsion were a rarity for a long time. In recent years, this is changing, especially for inland and pleasure craft. In this transition, a suitable charging infrastructure is of course essential. But which type of charging station is most suitable for ships? With its expertise and total solutions, Powerland is the ideal partner to guide you through the transition to electric boating.

Growing market

One of the largest sources of greenhouse gases in the transport sector is shipping. To meet climate goals, the European Commission wants ships to have zero emissions in Europe's seas and rivers by 2050.

There are also cities like Amsterdam that only allow zero-emission boats in their ports. One possible solution to this problem is the electrification of ship engines.

This could work well for pleasure boats and barges. Ships that sail close to the coast or travel relatively short distances such as ferries, sloops and tour boats also lend themselves well to electric propulsion. Electric sailing is therefore on the rise. 

Electric boating advantages

Electric boating has many advantages. There are no emissions of CO2 and particulate matter, improving air quality. The boating experience is also much more pleasant. An electric boat sails more quietly and pleasantly than an ordinary boat. There is no loud engine noise and much less vibration. 

An electric motor also requires less maintenance and can run the propeller at full power immediately. Moreover, electric boats are usually cheaper to run than traditional boats. Electricity is less expensive than fuel and there are less maintenance costs because electric motors wear out less. 

Charging stations for ships

There are several factors to consider when choosing a marine charging station. These include capacity, speed, location, cost and safety. A charging station with high capacity and speed can deliver more energy in a shorter time, but is also more expensive and requires more space and infrastructure. 

Depending on your needs, we have several options for you: a mobile charger, an individual charging station or a dynamic charging station.

Installation of charging infrastructure

Installing a charging infrastructure requires a lot of know-how. At Powerland, we start by listening to your needs and analysing your current situation.

Does the power of your meter need to be boosted or is a new cab needed? Is there a need for solar panels, battery storage or intelligent control? We think along with our customers so that we can propose an appropriate solution tailored to your needs. 

Whether you need fast chargers, smart AC chargers or mobile chargers, Powerland only works with top quality charging equipment. Together with our customers, we work to ensure a smooth transition to a sustainable fleet. Don't wait any longer and request a no-obligation consultation today.
