New electric boat show for Valencia, April 2024

A new electric boat show is being held in Valencia, Spain, from 11-14 April 2024. The four-day Valencia Electric Boat Show 2024, which will take place at the Valencia Marina, is being organised by the ANBE (National Association of Electric Boats) and the Union of Nautical Companies of the Valencian Community.

The association says the show is a ‘historic milestone’ in Spain’s sustainable boating sector. It will bring together experts, companies, associations and boating enthusiasts to explore the latest innovations in eco-efficient boating and discuss the energy transition at sea.

Shipyards including X Shore, Green Power Boats, Medvolt Marine, Lasai Boats, Silennis Boats, Sunconcept de Portugal, Volta Yachts and the Finnish shipyard Valkama, are already confirmed for the show, among others.

Electric motor and marine battery manufacturers will also join the event. Names confirmed include ePropulsion, Ocean Volt, Torqeedo, Water World, Mercury Avator, Zeleros, Endurance Move on and Eco Bat.

A conference called ‘Sustainable boating in Spain’ will provide space for debate on the growing sustainable boating industry in Spain, and the increasing number of sustainable ports, such as the Blue Ports project of the Ports of Andalusia — another exhibitor at the event.

The Valencia Electric Boat Show will also showcase solutions and technology for port facilities designed to support the energy transition, such as fast charging stations (both for electric boats and for users of electric cars), or companies specialising in renewable energy and solar panels that make the port space more sustainable.

Tickets are available through free registration on the Valencia Electric Boat Show 2024 website.
