Preliminary analysis of the conversion of a leisure boat into a battery electric vehicle (BEV)
The aim of this paper is the study of the conversion of a traditional internal combustion engine-powered leisure boat into an electric propelled type. The study focused primarily on the implementation of a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), with the intention of making it modular to simplify installation and maintenance operations. The economic and commercial aspect of the new electric boat was also explored. The boat selected for the study is located in the Porto Romano shipyard in Fiumicino.
