About us :
Electric power has been proven to be globally more environmentally friendly than any other form of power generation. Boats require less power to move a mass from A to B than other forms of transport. There are many good reasons for this, i.e. low friction, low speed and no hills. Combining these features, electrically propelled boats on inland waterways are the most efficient form of transport available, both globally and at the point of use where there is no noise, no pollution and no fuss.
The Electric Boat Association (EBA) was founded in the UK in 1982 to promote the development of Electric Boating and to serve the needs of all who have an interest in electric boating, boat owners or business members.
The EBA promotes electric boating worldwide and is the voice for electric boat owner’s interests at discussions with the inland waterway authorities and government departments involved with legislation for inland waterways issues such as waterway access, charging points, slipway facilities, reduced licence fees and the Boat Safety Scheme etc.
EBAA OBJECTIVES:
Location: Beaufort, NC, USA
MISSION
To promote the use of electric-powered boats and provide a place for those interested in electric boats and boating to find information about electric marine technology in Canada and connect with other electric boat enthusiasts and owners.
VISION
A future where vessels powered by internal combustion are the exception and fossil-free boats and ships are the most popular water transport in Canada and throughout the world.
The Electric Boat Association of Greece (EBA Greece) was founded in Greece in 2016 to promote the development of Electric Boating and to serve the needs of all who have an interest in electric boating, manufacturers , boat owners or business members.
The EBA promotes electric boating throughout the Greece and is the voice for electric boat manufacturers or owner’s interests at discussions with the inland waterway authorities and government departments involved with legislation for inland waterways issues such as waterway access, charging points, slipway facilities, reduced licence fees and the Boat Safety Scheme etc.
