The li-Ion chemistry is called lithium ferrous phosphate, LiFePO4 or LFP for short, but it’s a long story when it comes to installing them on yachts… And it’s not a mere box-dropping exercise. Not to mention that lithium-ion batteries are becoming trendy in the boating industry.
Just like the debate over twin or single engines on a passage-maker, or the raging battle about fibreglass vs steel, the question of gel vs lithium-ion batteries also has the potential to ignite World War III whether on online forums or at the pub… Armchair sailors and engineers alike love to talk about the mutual benefits of each battery solution. What battery bank on a long range power yacht? One of our clients who has owned several power yachts and who currently owns a new Selene has shared his experience with us… It’s worth reading his comments about the “house bank”. But we also like to know what our customers think, like or dislike. We have designed and built more than 400 vessels since 1999 and we keep a constant watch on new technologies, “greener” equipment and anything that can improve safety and comfort at sea on our yachts.
