Planning of the electrification of the fleet of boats of the Albufera (Final Work of Degree)

Planning of the electrification of the fleet of boats of the Albufera de Valencia. Specifically, in the tour boats of El Palmar. The calculation of the size of the batteries, the engine and the charging process will be addressed, based on data collected from the workers’ work activity. The impacts of current diesel-powered boats on the natural ecosystem of the Albufera will be evaluated, as well as the benefits and reduction in the impacts of the electrical transition. Finally, taking into account the technical, economic and social aspects, it will be evaluated if it is better that the electric batteries are removable, and thus be able to charge from homes, or not be removable and enable a recharge area in the municipal pier of El Palmar.
