Topic of the course
Electric Hybrid propulsion
Li-ion battery system and safety aspects
The Yachting world is one of the most innovative industrial sectors and in the recent years there was a significant evolution in the design. Hybrid or zero-emission propulsion solutions, battery powered hotel services and the presence of electric propulsion vehicles on board are increasingly being proposed. This involves the use of lithium batteries and related possible safety problems.
The Bureau Veritas Regulations describe the applicable technical standards in order to contain the potential risks.
