Main content:
Due to the emergence of fuel-powered vessels, there has been less demand for electric boats on the market. Now, in order to reduce carbon footprint and fuel waste, as well as the increasing maturity of pure electric boat technology and progressively lower battery cost, the global electric boat industry has great growth potential in the coming years, and may become the next big scenario for power battery applications after electric vehicles.
The top 10 boat battery manufacturers in China in 2023 include EVE, CATL, Camel Group, GOTION HIGH-TECH, BYD, Ganfeng Lithium,Great Power, Sunwoda,Lishen and REPT.
