We will build a solar-powered boat!

Our university in partnership with a Turkish shipyard is going to build a boat propelled by renewable energy - with a hybrid solar-wind-electric propulsion. The consortium of Maritime University of Szczecin, Warsaw University of Technology, and the Autocomp company from Szczecin were allocated a EUR 1M grant for project implementation. Final assembly, launching and the boat's first cruise are planned to take place in the Marmara Sea in 2016.
