Presented by the Yacht Club de Monaco in collaboration with Aqua superPower, the YCM E-Dock is an innovative floating pontoon that fast-charges the electric boats of the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge — a real demonstration that clean, on-the-water charging works at scale.
The YCM E-Dock is a floating charging platform — an eco-pontoon originally built of bamboo, equipped with both AC and DC chargers. Conceived by the Yacht Club de Monaco as part of its commitment to sustainable navigation, it lets up to 20 electric boats recharge at the same time during the Challenge.
The YCM was the first marina in the world to install Aqua’s rapid DC marine fast chargers — paving the way for electric boating.
Everything needed to keep an electric fleet on the water, in one floating platform.
A floating platform originally built of bamboo, designed with sustainability in mind.
Both alternating and direct current, for fast and reliable charging of every boat.
Recharges more than twenty electric boats at the same time during the event.
Flexible solar panels on the roof add renewable energy to the charging mix.
Powered by Aqua superPower’s high-power marine charging (Aqua 200 HPC) with Kempower Satellite technology — the largest public marine fast-charging installation on a single pontoon.
During the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge, the E-Dock keeps the electric fleet powered and hosts some of the event’s key moments.
The commercial electric boats of the Open Sea Xperience recharge dockside between trials.
The AI Class autonomous docking missions take place around the E-Dock in the harbour.
A floating prototype pontoon nearby produces green hydrogen from renewable energy, fuelling hydrogen teams.
The YCM E-Dock shows that electric boating is here today — see it in action at the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge.
