How Solar-Assisted Electric Boats Can Empower Fishing Livelihoods
SF partner – Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) – also funded by FCDO, carried out a recent study which found that switching to solar-powered e-boats can solve several of these issues. Using solar-powered boats is cheaper, sustainable, better for the environment, and raises income.
The study found that there’s a huge 84% increase in the earnings of fisherfolk when they use solar-assisted e-boats.
