Germany-based Lehmann Marine has introduced a new water-cooled marine battery system.
The battery offers a 2C discharge rate—twice the rate of the company’s current lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery systems. Its modular and flexible design allows the system to be adapted easily to the individual needs of different vessels with limited space and makes it readily accessible for maintenance. Delivery of the first systems is scheduled for mid-2026.
A recent merger with the Greek Sunlight Group will enable Lehmann Marine to increase its production capacity, worldwide service capabilities and technical development.
“Power-hungry propulsion systems used in larger vessels can now serve as potential platforms for an emission-free energy solution utilizing safe and compact LFP battery technology. The short turnaround cycles of vessels, such as ferries, will no longer be an obstacle when considering fully electric or electric hybrid propulsion,” Lehmann Marine stated.
