The demand for electricity in marinas is growing rapidly. Fully electric boats are increasingly being spotted, and the larger battery capacity of vessels leads to increased energy consumption. At the same time, water usage is also on the rise. This calls for a smart and efficient approach.
With RecraPlan, energy management in your marina is fully automated. From managing electricity and water to advanced consumption tracking and flexible payment options – our system provides a solution that gives both marina managers and guests ease and control.
Why is electricity consumption in marinas increasing?
Marinas have seen a clear increase in electricity consumption over the past few years. This is due to:
- The rise of electric boats – More and more water sports enthusiasts are opting for sustainable boating, resulting in a growing demand for charging stations.
- Larger battery capacity of boats – Modern vessels have larger batteries that need to be charged more frequently and at higher power levels.
- More comfort on board – Boat owners are increasingly using electric appliances, such as cooking plates, air conditioners, and heating.
According to theEnergy Storage Roadmap from RVO, this development calls for an expansion of the charging infrastructure in the maritime sector. This means that marinas must organize their energy management smartly and scalability.Read more at rvo.nl)
