Torqeedo, the global market leader for electric mobility on water, eagerly anticipates the 2024 Olympics. An exciting highlight will be the opening ceremony on July 26, featuring a grand parade of ninety boats on the river Seine. At least four of these will be powered by Torqeedo’s electric motors and batteries. The vessels, which were equipped by Torqeedo’s in-house Customized Solutions division, show the future of sustainable transport on the water. The Customized Solutions Business Unit specializes in integrating high-voltage powertrains into vessels for commercial use. In light of the 2024 Olympics, Paris is celebrating its goal to improve local emissions during the opening ceremony and is placing the longest and heaviest electric boat ever on the Seine, “Mistinguett”, at the heart of the ship parade. Powered by two Torqeedo Deep Blue 100i electric motors and six units of the new Deep Blue Battery 80, “Mistinguett” will transport athletes during the opening ceremony.
"The City of Paris has set itself the goal of halving the environmental footprint of previous Olympic Games at this year's Games. We are proud to support the city with our latest Customized Solutions Business Unit project, while setting new standards in sustainability for the 2024 Olympic Games. The conversion of the Mistinguett to an all-electric propulsion system demonstrates how traditional vessels can be equipped with state-of-the-art technology to glide quietly and emission-free across the water in the future. As the world leader in electric mobility on the water, we have been developing customized electric propulsion solutions for over 19 years to create the best boating experience for our customers,” says Matthias Vogel, Senior Vice President of the Customized Solutions Business Unit at Torqeedo.
The deployment of electric boats on the Seine is a testament to Paris's commitment to reducing emissions and pollution in its waterways and urban areas. Torqeedo’s advanced electric propulsion systems provide a zero-emission alternative to conventional engines, ensuring cleaner air, fewer noise emissions, and a healthier environment for residents and visitors.
