Thanks to the solar panels, the environmentally friendly boat is designed to produce its own energy and not pollute the environment. In conventional fuel-based boat models, environmental pollution at sea is very high because diesel engines are used. On the boat, a solar powered boat is designed by generating electricity from the solar energy and driving the electric motor. The battery capacity is based on the power of the motor. At the same time charging units of the batteries have been added. The diesel engine that pollutes the environment is not used. We are working with solar energy; the energy generated from the solar panels is stored in the system spindle with the determination of the maximum power point. The energy in the cell is also controlled and used by the electric motor. There is a transfer system between the electric motor and the propeller. The length of the boat is about 4 m, width 1 m and depth 80 cm. Electric motor 5 kW will be used. An average speed of 10 miles per hour is targeted. The solar-powered boat is designed to enhance the use of energy resources in the maritime industry, where alternative energy is important, and to improve the use of these energy resources.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSolar energysolar panelboatelectric motorbatterySolar powered boat designConference Object21132116
