Innovative Electric Boat and Drive System Development

Optima Projects正在为休闲船舶市场开发一系列创新的电动船，该项目代表了与RAD Propulsion和SEC marine合作开发的重要一步。这些船是基于一种新颖和创新的船体形式，以减少阻力，同时允许船只以非常低的功耗和增加的舒适性运行远高于正常船体排水量速度。这将使动力船在电池动力下可行，大大减少对环境的影响和运行成本。通过减少噪音，加速和污染，通道也将更加愉快和社交。这艘船将包括一个非常高效和轻量级的先进复合结构，使用计算机建模和有限元分析进行高度优化，以最大限度地减少重量，最大限度地提高效率和降低成本。RAD Propulsion公司将开发一种新的双旋转吊舱驱动器，与其他船系统高度连接。这将提供卓越的机动性和易于操作。作为该项目的一部分，我们将建造一艘长9米的测试船，配有双电驱动装置，用于海上试验和测试。电气设计和安装由SEC Marine负责。该项目将代表海洋工业在可持续性方面的重大进步。拥有成本将大大低于可比的传统动力船，并将鼓励来自更广泛和更多样化的客户群的参与。

Optima Projects are developing an innovative range of electric boats for the leisure marine market and this project represents a major step forward in that development in collaboration with RAD Propulsion and SEC Marine.The boats are based on a novel and innovative hull-form to reduce resistance while allowing the vessel to operate well above normal hull displacement speeds with very low power consumption and with increased comfort. This will make powerboating under electric battery power viable with dramatic reductions in environmental impact and running costs. Passages will also be more enjoyable and sociable, with reduced noise, accelerations, and pollution.The boat will include a very efficient and lightweight advanced composite structure highly optimised using computer modelling and finite element analysis to minimise weight, maximise efficiency and reduce cost.RAD Propulsion will be developing a new twin rotating pod drive with a high degree of connectivity into the rest of the boat systems. This will provide exceptional manoeuvrability and ease of handling.As part of this project, we will construct a 9m test boat, complete with twin electric drives for sea trials and testing. The electrical design and installation is being undertaken by SEC Marine.This project will represent a major advance in sustainability in the marine industry. The cost of ownership will be significantly lower than a comparable conventional powerboat and will encourage engagement from a wider and more diverse customer base.
