SFC Energy cooperates with ePropulsion in the field of electric boat drives - EFOY fuel cell provides power for the test winner outboard motor Spirit 1.0 PLUS - Seite 2

There is another advantage for sailors. They can use the charging function of EFOY fuel cell while sailing, i.e. when the engine is switched off. If there is no wind, the EFOY fuel cell will be fully charged and the engine will let the sailing continue. This is an extremely important function because moorings often do not have enough power supply to charge the battery.

This is where SFC Energy comes into play with more than 15 years of expertise in water sports and leisure boats. Long battery charging times are avoided and the motor is supplied easily and quickly with energy. At the same time, the EFOY fuel cell reliably supplies the on-board electronics with power. Since the number of consumer appliances is constantly increasing, the technology offers a practical and sustainable solution. The fuel cell is silent and environmentally friendly, yet extremely powerful.

"At SFC Energy we always focus on future issues and provide sustainable answers. New mobility concepts are definitely one of them. Together with our partner ePropulsion, we provide boaters and sailors with a powerful, environmentally friendly and comfortable solution based on ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 PLUS and EFOY fuel cell. Both partners profitably combine their long-standing expertise in drive and fuel cell technology in this cooperation. Everyone benefits: partners and sailors - but most of all the environment," says Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy AG.

"We are very glad about the cooperation with SFC Energy. The market for electric boat drives is exciting and is dynamically growing. Together we will resolutely grasp the opportunities with our innovative solution," says Danny Tao, founder and CEO of ePropulsion.
