According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Electric Boat and Ship Market Report by Propulsion Type (Hybrid, Pure Electric), Battery Type (Lead-acid, Lithium-ion, Nickel-based Batteries), Carriage Type (Passenger, Cargo), and Region 2025-2033," the global electric boat and ship market reached a value of USD 7.0 Billion in 2024. Electric boat and ship refer to small-sized passenger ships that are generally propelled using batteries. They mainly comprise a controller, an electric motor and a battery pack that offers improved operational efficiency. Their batteries are commonly manufactured using lithium-iron-phosphate, nickel and lead-acid materials that provide electric propulsion to electric boats and ships. In comparison to traditional marine vessels, they are environmentally friendly, create lesser noise, have minimal fuel requirements and are cost-efficient to operate. Along with this, they are produced using durable and lightweight materials that generate minimal dragging and optimal propulsion for the vehicle.
