Unlocking zero-emission high-speed maritime transport
Introducing our transformative Artemis eFoiler® electric propulsion system – a revolutionary design developed to help decarbonise our seas, shape the future of maritime, and position Artemis Technologies as the clear market leader in high-speed zero-emission vessels and propulsion systems.
The Artemis eFoiler® is subject to a number of granted patents and pending patent applications in multiple countries.
Leave No Trace
Minimal Wake
By flying above the waves, eFoiler® propelled vessels produce minimal wake, allowing for high-speed, close-to-shore operations within busy waterways.
Significantly reducing journey time, whilst protecting wildlife, shorelines and anchored vessels.
100% Electric
Electric propulsion generates zero emissions in operation, removing air, water and noise pollution.
Premium Experience
Comfortable Ride
The autonomous flight control system ensures a smooth ride, mitigating the effects of seasickness often associated with wavy conditions.
Quiet Performance
Due to the fully submerged electric drivetrain, the Artemis eFoiler® provides a quiet experience.
Better for Business
Efficiency
The Artemis eFoiler® works at an unmatched efficiency of more than twice as efficient as traditional Diesel engines.
The design of the eFoiler® provides significant range at high-speed, whilst also reducing operational costs through substantial fuel savings.
Vessels developed with eFoiler® propulsion will operate with up to 90% lower fuel costs compared with traditional ferries, with the capability of carrying up to 150 passengers.
Complete System
The Artemis eFoiler® is based on the integration of a high-power density electric drivetrain into an autonomously controlled hydrofoil; combining proven technologies from yacht racing, motorsport, and the aerospace industry.
Artemis Technologies has also developed a unique computer simulation tool, the ‘eSim’, that enables optimised designs of the Artemis eFoiler® system for any type or dimension of vessel, without lengthy and expensive design iterations.
High-Voltage Battery
Marinised 800v Battery Energy Storage System.
Steering System
Aft foil acts as a rudder to steer under propulsion, with bow thrusters, to assist in low speed manoeuvres.
Electric Propulsion
The hydrofoil is coupled with a fully submerged, self-cooled ultra-high power density electric drivetrain that is 97% efficient.
Hydrofoils
High aspect ratio foils, with replaceable leading edges, that lift the vessel out of the water.
Collision Avoidance System
Identifies submerged and semi-submerged objects including wildlife.
Flight Control System
Ride height of the vessel is managed by a computerised autonomous flight control system.
