Glas Ocean Electric (GOE) is a pioneering company dedicated to integrating electric boats with community energy systems to bring clean energy to coastal communities. Their innovative approach views electric boats as dynamic energy storage solutions, capable of supplying energy for peak shaving, providing emergency power, and acting as a load source to absorb intermittent renewable power when available. This model facilitates the introduction of more renewable energy into electrical grids, thereby supporting the communities they serve.

At the core of their offerings is the HyMarine Electric Conversion Kit, an innovative solution designed to convert commercial vessels to hybrid electric operation. This kit allows vessels, including fishing boats, tour boats, and work vessels under 50 tonnes, to operate primarily on electric power while retaining the original diesel engine as a backup. This significantly reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs by 50-70%, minimizes noise levels by 50% (3dB), and drastically lowers emissions by up to 70%, contributing to healthier marine environments and improved conditions for marine professionals and passengers.

Further enhancing maritime efficiency, GOE offers PerforMarine™, an AI-powered application that optimizes vessel performance. This app provides operators with real-time route and propulsion suggestions based on vessel specifications, historical data, and environmental factors like wave, current, and weather data. PerforMarine™ helps track costs, improve operational efficiency, and allows for secure, anonymized data aggregation to empower individual vessels and entire fleets, applicable to both fossil and electric-powered vessels.
