About New Electric
Development of prototypes into large machinesNew Electric Engineering started converting a speedboat to 100% electric in 2008 so we could go water skiing. We have been converting all types of vehicles, vessels and heavy machinery for 15 years. From classic cars to tractors, from yachts to tugboats, with a combined weight of 100 tons that sail emission-free through the Amsterdam canals. In addition to converting the machines, we also supply complete drivetrains to conversion partners. Since our drivetrain is certified for road use by the National Road Transport Agency, a certificate is valid in all EU countries.

Our marine projects
Waternet boat
The "Pieter Kruiswijk" is a survey and inspection vessel with an HDPE hull. Built for Waternet and equipped with 2 complete and separate electric drivetrains, each with 45 kWh IEC certified LFP modules and our 100 kW New Electric Marine drive coupled to Mercruiser sterndrives.
Tug
The "JAN" is a tugboat that we have converted for Sleeping Service Luteijn. SI, approved by the NBKB, this vessel is certified up to 100 tons in combination weight and works daily in and around the Amsterdam canals. Equipped with a series hybrid version of our 100 kW New Electric Marine propulsion, 130 kWh of IEC-certified LFP modules and a 40 kVa backup generator set, this vessel can handle heavy duty and double shifts.
ZOEV City Tug
The tugboat "Dorus" has been converted for PK Waterbouw and used for ZOEV CITY emission-free transport of goods and (construction) materials in the canals of Amsterdam. Equipped with a parallel hybrid version of our 100 kW New Electric Marine propulsion and 65 kWh IEC-certified LFP modules, this vessel has up to 5 hours of autonomous, all-electric operation while pushing 100 tons around the city. Once outside the city center, it switches to diesel-hybrid mode to pick up new materials while charging its battery.
