How do solar powered boats work? On the roof of the Nexus Revo 870 Electric, the maximum capacity is used for solar panels. The energy from the sun is converted into electric energy. This energy is used to power the boat to provide a comfortable - zero emission - tour on the water or when you have found a mooring spot in nature to provide energy for the hotel facilities onboard. When you are not boating or using facilities onboard, the solar energy is stored in the battery for later use. When you are in a harbor with shore power, you can also use shore power to charge the batteries.
720 Wp Solar roof The Nexus Revo 870 Hardtop Electric & Solar Powered is equipped with a full rooftop of high efficient solar panels. The combination of the solar panels and the amount of installed battery capacity make it possible to have a longer stay in nature. The combination of sun and battery power can facilitate for example 5 days in nature with every day 2 hours of boating including the onboard energy consumption for cooking and hot water*.
*This time can be longer or shorter depending on your energy management and the sunshine.
Solar benefits Energy from the solar panels on the rooftop of the Nexus Revo 870 Electric provide sustainable comfort, weather you are boating or at rest. There is no need for a generator or to connect to shore power. Energy from the sun is harnessed without noise, without vibrations and is zero emission. You can enjoy the outdoors to the fullest.
