UK-based SME Coastal Workboats Ltd (CWL), Coastal Workboats Scotland, and BK Marine Ltd will come together to deliver a UK-first demonstration of a fully-electric workboat and charging station.Shipping (international and domestic) is responsible for 3.4% of the UK's GHG emissions (DfT, 2019). A standard diesel vessel produces 23.3kg CO2/mile, translating into 181.5t CO2/year. Electric boat propulsion is emission-free, bypassing CO2, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, particulate matter and nitrogen oxides emissions, having an additional impact at reducing ocean acidification. Electric powered boats are currently restricted to pleasure boats as there has been no demonstration of an electric workboat. The challenges workboats face are:-Charging: fast ferry turnaround requiring rapid charging.-Low or no grid power available to support powering EV vessels in remote-access areas.-Integrated design of power systems, propeller and battery installation to ensure acceptable functionality and durability.-Fire safety: Improvements in battery chemistry and packaging reduce fire risk. However, the improved cells are still pending approval.This project will include a four week demonstration of an inter-island workboat in the Shetland Islands, West Burrafirth to Papa Stour, which will run twice daily, five days a week, and with a 45 minute journey time one-way. This will be commenced once the vessel has been sea trialled and all testing completed. CWL's E-LUV will be the UK's first electric workboat demonstrator, exhibiting integration of hull design, propulsion, energy storage and fire safety to meet regulations and inform future electric workboat guidance. CWL will be working closely with the MCA during the project to support the creation of a new regulatory framework.

总部位于英国的SME Coastal Workboats Ltd（CWL），苏格兰沿海工作船和BK Marine Ltd将汇聚在一起，以提供全电动工作船和充电站的英国首次演示。造成英国3.4％的英国GHG发电厂（DFT，2019年）。标准柴油船可产生23.3kg二氧化碳/英里，转化为181.5t CO2/年。电船推进是无排放的，绕过二氧化碳，一氧化碳，碳氢化合物，颗粒物和氮氧化物的排放，在减少海洋酸化方面具有额外的影响。目前，由于没有电动工作船的示范，电动船只被限制在游艇上。工作船面孔的挑战是： - 充电：快速渡轮周转，需要快速充电。低或没有电网电源来支持远程访问区域中的电动汽车船。电动系统，螺旋桨和电池安装的综合设计，以确保可接受的功能和耐用性。火力的安全性：电池化学和包装的改进安全性和包装降低火灾风险。但是，改进的细胞仍在待批准中。该项目将包括为期四周的设得兰群岛的岛Inter-Island Workbat，West Burrafirth到Papa Stour，该赛车将每天，每周五天运行两次，每周五天进行两次运行。一旦船只进行了海上试验并完成了所有测试，这将开始。 CWL的E-LUV将是英国的第一台电动工作船演示者，展示了船体设计，推进，能源存储和消防安全的整合，以满足法规并为未来的电力工作船指导提供信息。在项目期间，CWL将与MCA紧密合作，以支持创建新的监管框架。
