The innovative products presented include highlights such as their permanent magnet motors
The Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe, held every year in June in the Dutch city of Amsterdam, is one of the main international trade fairs for propulsion systems for electric and hybrid boats, as well as technologies and components. The fair, held on 18-20 June at the RAI Amsterdam, is focussed on the latest maritime propulsion technologies, as well as other components and solutions for propulsion systems for electric and hybrid boats.
The Basque company Alconza, a renowned manufacturer of electric motors and generators for the shipbuilding industry, will take part in the fair as one of the main international players in the search for solutions to issues including electrification, decarbonisation and greenhouse gas reduction.
With more than 60 years of experience, Alconza is a leading manufacturer in the shipbuilding industry. Specialising in the design and manufacture of electric motors and custom generators, the company provides at high quality, tailored solutions to customers in various sectors worldwide.
Presenting its Permanent Magnet Motors
At the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe 2024, Alconza will focus on the presentation of their flagship products, including their permanent magnet motors. These motors, specifically designed for propulsion and manoeuvring propellers, provide a number of significant advantages for the maritime industry. Firstly with regard to energy efficiency. Permanent magnet motors are known for their high energy efficiency, which leads to lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions.
Secondly, these permanent magnet motors are much more compact and can be customised. Alconza provides compact solutions that can be easily customised to adapt them to the specific needs of each vessel, thus optimising the space available on board.
Awards at the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe
Alconza will take part in the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe 2024, coinciding with the presentation of the Electric & Hybrid Marine Awards, which acknowledge excellence in engineering, innovation and products in the maritime electric and hybrid sector. The award categories include environmental achievement of year – vessel design, propulsion system design and industry contribution, as well as concept vessel design of the year, new propulsion technology of the year, vessel charging innovation of the year, ports and harbour innovation of the year, hydrogen technology breakthrough of the year and marine industry supplier of the year.
Alconza’s participation in this fair highlights its commitment to innovation and the development of sustainable solutions for the shipbuilding industry, strengthening its leading position in the electric motor and generator market.
