Bosch’s components for powertrain electrification are available as standard for the marine market and are suitable for a wide range of recreational and working boats. Across the globe, ever-increasing environmental regulations and emission standards are reinforcing the trend toward electric shipping – and not just among shipping companies and boat manufacturers. The growing customer demand for an eco-friendlier solution is also driving the industry. With its electrification solutions for recreational motorboats and sailing yachts, Bosch is aiming to make a significant contribution to this paradigm shift in the maritime sector. Its electric motors, inverters, transmissions and control units are based on the company’s tried-and-tested automotive technology.

The new separate motor-generator 230 delivers up to 80kW more power than a comparable 400V machine with identical weight or, with the same level of performance, boasts more compact dimensions and a much lower weight. The development is based on Bosch volume-production applications in the commercial vehicle sector and therefore ensures utmost reliability in mobile machinery and marine applications. In combination with the matching inverter INV 4 OHW, the electric motor meets all the requirements of the Low Voltage and Recreational Craft directives.
