Electrification of the HM vessel – Future-proof modernisation for sustainable operation
Motivation
The aim of the project is to create practical and engaging applications for Teaching. By electrifying a boat, complex topics such as data collection and renewable energy become tangible. The aim is to combine technical expertise with environmental responsibility and sustainable mobility in a practically-oriented way.
Effect
Students learn how to work with complex systems as part of a real-world interdisciplinary project. The electrification of the HM boat serves as an example of how everyone can play their part in combating climate change. The university is setting an example in this regard.
