CTO Martin Boughtwood on marine propulsion

Martin Boughtwood, CTO, comments on a feasibility study that looks at how our unique motor technology can be deployed to provide important benefits for marine propulsion: “For marine applications, we can readily scale the Pareta® concept to produce machines that will continuously deliver 3 MW of power and a torque of 30,000 Nm with an operating efficiency of up to 99%.

This opens the way for clean merchant vessels with much lower operating costs than those powered by conventional engines. The power density of Pareta® motors is also way ahead of ordinary motors. This will allow us to develop exceptionally compact propulsion systems, which is another big advantage in the marine sector where space can be at a premium.”
