Innovative Electric Boat and Drive System Development

Optima项目正在为休闲海洋市场开发一系列创新的电动游艇，该项目代表着与RAD Propusion和SEC Marine合作在这一开发方面向前迈出的重要一步。该游艇基于一种新颖和创新的船体形状，以减少阻力，同时允许船只以非常低的功耗和更高的舒适性远远超过正常船体的排水量速度。这将使电动游艇在电动电池供电下可行，并大幅降低对环境的影响和运行成本。过道也将更加愉快和社交，减少噪音、加速和污染。船将包括非常高效和轻便的先进复合材料结构，通过计算机建模和有限元分析进行高度优化，以最大限度地减轻重量、最大限度地提高效率和降低成本。RAD Propusion将开发一种新的双旋转吊舱驱动器，与船的其余系统高度连接。作为该项目的一部分，我们将建造一艘9米长的测试船，并配有两个电动驱动装置，用于海上试验和测试。电气设计和安装由SEC Marine承担。这一项目将代表着海洋行业可持续性方面的重大进步。拥有成本将显著低于可比的传统动力船，并将鼓励更广泛和更多样化的客户群参与。

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.
