the Problem.
inefficient and slow.
Marine transportation is inefficient and slow. Boats and ships produce one billion tons of CO2 emissions annually, or 3% of global emissions. The industry is highly dependent on fossil fuels and, due to the energy intensity, is very hard to decarbonize and creates barriers to electrification while maintaining practical ranges.
limited and damaging.
Additional issues include seasickness, limited operability in shallow waters, noise pollution affecting marine ecosystems, damaging wakes, and frequent underwater strikes of marine life and debris.
the Solution.
The DACV utilizes a 3-hulled design and operates by creating an energized column of air that is passed underneath the vessel, creating both lift and thrust. This simple and elegant design lifts the vessel out of the water, vastly reducing drag. The result is high speed with low power. The reduction in energy makes full electrification possible while maintaining practical ranges, achieving zero emissions.
The versatility of the DACV will accelerate economic growth of coastal regions and enable practical electrification of marine transportation, including ferries in high-use regions.
