To protect the pristine environment during tours, the Krka National Park commissioned two hybrid e-vessels designed for a capacity of 50 passengers each. The vessels are equipped with both solar PV panels and battery storage. When the sun shines, solar cells supply power to the propulsion. When the sun disappears, the propulsion runs on battery power. In this way the e-vessels run reliably emission-free, no matter what the weather. The fully electric vessels operate a cycle of 8 hours on battery power and 12 hours on solar panels. Service speed is 5 knots, and maximum speed is 9 knots. Danfoss cooperated with the system integrator Inmel, by providing all the necessary hardware and software for the green hybrid solution.
