Project: Efficient, sustainable and bioinspired electric marine propulsion system
| Acronym | DolPOD (Reference Number: 115324) |
| Duration | 01/10/2021 - 01/10/2023 |
| Project Topic | We will develop an ultra-efficient electric maritime propulsion system—DolPOD. The system integrates SeaDrive’s state-of-the-art electric pods with Dolprop’s bioinspired cavitation-free fluke propulsion. Combining SeaDrive’s high energy-to-work conversion efficiency with Dolprop’s minimal-loss fluke propulsion, we’ll introduce a sustainable and affordable alternative to fossil-powered maritime propulsion. We will produce systems ranging from 3.5 to 30kW for vessels cruising up to 15 knots. |
