In this paper, the solar powered boat is developed by considering the solar panel to harvest the solar energy and converted into electrical energy to power up motors and stored in a battery. Moreover, the solar powered boat also implies the usage of sun tracking system which is used to maximize the solar harvesting process.
Solar Boating 101 Boats that are powered 100% by solar energy are completely off grid. They rely on large numbers of high efficiency monocrystaline solar panels to generate the energy to both power the motor (inboard or outboard) with direct current, AND to charge the batteries that allow for navigation at night.
Using solar means you can use your boat anywhere. And there is no limit to your range. But they tend to be slow. You aren’t water skiing behind a solar powered boat (at least the ones available now). If the journey and the ability to boat anywhere is important to you - solar boating might be a better option than a plug-in electric boat.
Charging time will be affected by weather, shade, time-of-day, age and use of battery, efficiency of the charge controller, placement of the solar panels, efficiency of the solar panels, and other operational factors. Do solar panels drive the boat on cloudy days, or do you have to rely only on battery power?
In the case of the first two boat types, solar energy utilization is a crucial factor. Consequently, when designing these boats, considerations such as the size and shape of the vessel revolve around various factors, including the required surface area of the solar panel for the intended mission.
However, the boats have their limits. They have their extra diesel fuel in storage for an unexpected journey but still the fuel will run out. In this paper, the solar powered boat is developed by considering the solar panel to harvest the solar energy and converted into electrical energy to power up motors and stored in a battery.
