Description

Electric boats are a real and growing segment, and savvy marina operators are planning for them. In this session, Nick Schoeps of Photon Marine and Scott Canning of Aqua superPower explain how your marina can prepare. We’ll start with the market outlook and which electric boats are likely to show up at your pier first. Then we’ll tackle charging and infrastructure: how many chargers, what types, and where. We’ll cover emerging technologies that can make this easier, and where to spend today without overbuilding. We’ll close with lessons learned from the field. Scott has pioneered DC charging rollout in the US, and Nick’s team is finishing an electrification overhaul of the Port of Friday Harbor in Washington State.
