Electric boat charging specialist Aqua superPower has installed and activated a marine DC fast charger at Newport Harbor, a marina in Newport Beach, California.

The Aqua charger now in service at Marina Park can deliver up to 24 kW of power via a CCS connector. Designed specifically for the harsh marine environment, the unit can charge a wide range of electric vessels, from leisure craft to commercial operators.

Aqua superPower handles installation, maintenance, and remote monitoring through its cloud-based Neptune platform. Boaters can locate the charger, check real-time availability, and pay via the Aqua superPower app.

Aqua superPower’s charging network now includes over 60 installations in Europe, North America, and beyond, and the company plans further expansion in high-traffic coastal areas such as San Diego and Santa Barbara.

Last year, the Newport Beach Harbor Department added an electric Vita work boat to its fleet. The purchase of the Vita e-boat was partially funded by California’s Clean Off-Road Equipment (CORE) program.

“Newport Beach is a gateway to pristine coastal waters, and by bringing our fast charging infrastructure here, we’re not just powering electric boats—we’re fueling a sustainable future for marine electrification,” said Scott Canning, US VP Business Development for Aqua superPower. “Our brand-agnostic technology supports every major electric boat manufacturer, making the switch to e-boating seamless and accessible for all.”

“We’re thrilled to lead the charge—literally—in making Newport Beach a destination for green boating,” said Marina Park Harbor Master Paul Blank. “This partnership with Aqua superPower enhances our facilities while inviting more harbors and marinas to adopt electric work boats and encourage electric recreational boating.”
