Electric Boat and Ship Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global electric boat and ship market size reached US$ 5.8 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 11.6 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5% during 2023-2028.

Electric boats and ships refer to small-sized ferries and passenger ships that sail using electricity. They utilize marine-grade lead-acid, nickel and lithium-iron-phosphate batteries and rugged and reliable electric propulsion motors for enhanced operational efficiency. The ships and boats are commonly available in diesel-electric, hybrid and fully electric drive variants. The diesel-electric ships consist of diesel generators to produce electricity, hybrid drive ships consist of onboard batteries that operate with an internal combustion engine and the fully electric drive ships consist only of batteries as the primary source of power. In comparison to the traditionally used marine vessels, electric boats and ships operate silently, are more cost-effective, have minimal fuel requirements and are highly environment friendly.

Electric Boat and Ship Market Trends:
The increasing demand for efficient marine transportation systems across the globe is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Moreover, the rising environmental consciousness among the masses is providing a thrust to the market growth. Electric boats and ships are produced with specialized hull and body specifications, along with light and durable materials, to generate minimal drag and optimal propulsion. Additionally, various technological advancements, such as the integration of dashboard monitoring, remote monitoring and warning systems, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These systems provide an accurate overview of the overall performance of the vessel, including battery temperature, voltage and state of charge (SoC), and facilitate immediate shutdown and troubleshooting in case of a threat. Other factors, including significant growth in the tourism industry and increasing seaborne trade, along with the implementation of favorable government policies promoting the utilization of sustainable energy systems, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
