How to finance your electric or hybrid propulsion project?

Navigating the territory allows you to benefit from significant financial support to realise your fleet decarbonisation project, whether for a new boat or an existing one. Regardless of your activity and your navigation area, grants and funding are available to make your project a reality.

1

Establish a budget

It is important to first know how much your project will cost. It will mainly vary depending on the power of your engines and the autonomy you need. Do not hesitate to contact us to establish an initial estimate.

2

Know your financing capabilities

Next, you need to contact your bank to find out the maximum amount of financing you can obtain. At Weenav, we have partner banks that can assist you in this regard.

3

Search for external funding or grants

There are public or private funding and grants available, whether in the river or maritime sector. You can apply for them for your project, or we can assist you in doing so.

4

Draft external funding application files

Once the funding that meets your eligibility criteria has been found, you must draft the funding file in order to obtain the agreement of the organisation. We are already in contact with most of these organisations, so do not hesitate to ask us for advice.

Electric motor funding: What assistance is available?

The assistance covers both the river and maritime sectors

Navigation fluviale

Electric motors reduce CO2 emissions by completely eliminating the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the combustion of fossil fuels. By using electricity, which is often produced from renewable sources, they minimize their overall environmental impact. Thus, electric motors play a crucial role in the transition to more sustainable and climate-friendly navigation.
Charging technologies for marine electrical systems include various options:

• Classic socket (single phase): Allows standard charging ideal for equipped docks. Adapted to slow recharges, often included in port infrastructures.
• 3-phase socket (32A): Offers charging power up to 22 kW. It allows significantly faster recharges for three-phase compatible boats.
• CCS Combo Jack: Fast to ultra-fast charging solution, up to 200 kW. It allows recharging up to 2C, i.e. from 10% to 90% in about 30 minutes.
• Optional: High power CCS combo : Extended version that can reach up to 300 kW for even faster charging needs.

These charging options provide flexibility for the varied energy needs of marine electrical systems, allowing charging times to be adapted to different requirements and conditions of use. We work hand in hand with AquaSuperPower, which generally installs a fast charging station when an electrification project is launched in a port.
Professionals report positive feedback on the use of electric motors, highlighting their low maintenance costs, increased reliability, and reduced environmental impact. They also appreciate the quiet operation and consistent performance of electric motors.
Our electric motors comply with ESTRIN standards for inland waterways and the relevant division for maritime use, depending on the type of boat you have (Divisions 221, 222, 223 A and B, 224, 226, 240/NUC, 243, 245, etc.). All our boats are IP 67 certified (waterproof to a depth of 1 m for 30 minutes) and CE certified (Electrical Compliance).
The electric motor requires less maintenance and has a less complicated composition, which means that it has a much longer lifespan.
