The experiences from the PoC tests in the autumn of 2021 have been analysed and the conclusion is that we are aiming for a more production-oriented solution, already at this stage.

The company management team has set the goal that the company shall be able to demonstrate the new version, called ElecoRunner Zero Series (EZS) on August the 26.

During May and June, the focus is on completing adaptations for a stronger engine, in parallel with verification in a test bench. The work will then continue during July and August with installation and verification of the new driveline until the planned demonstration on 26 August.

This is a big and very inspiring challenge with a bold time plan.

All our customers have a great environmental awareness and sustainability has a high priority in their organizations. As a result of these factors, we see a large and growing need for a completely fossil-free and electric SAR-boats on the market.

In August we looking forward to demonstrate the ElEcoRunner, which meets the requirements for both safe operation and sustainability, with its environmentally friendly driveline and a functionally based on the well-proven RescueRunner design.
