The demand for electricity in marinas is growing rapidly. Fully electric boats are increasingly being spotted, and the larger battery capacity of vessels results in rising energy consumption. At the same time, water consumption is also increasing. 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 offers both harbor managers and guests convenience and control.
Why is electricity consumption in marinas increasing?
Marinas have seen a clear increase in electricity consumption in recent years. This is due to:
- The rise of electric boats – More and more water sports enthusiasts are opting for sustainable boating, leading to 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 powers.
- More comfort on board – Boat owners are increasingly using electric appliances such as cooktops, air conditioners, and heating.
According to theEnergy Storage Roadmap from the RVO, this development calls for an expansion of the charging infrastructure in the maritime sector. This means that marinas need to organize their energy management smartly and scalably. (Read more at rvo.nl)
