- Electric mobility on the water -
What with a steadily growing population, global warming and increasing energy consumption in the transport sector with limited oil reserves, there are several good reasons for the global trend towards electric mobility. If we are to prevent the worst possible damage from climate change, we must reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 45% within the next 11 years.
Torqeedo from Starnberg, Germany - The Origins
The use of petrol and diesel engines on Lake Starnberg is extermely limited. This prompted the managing directors of Torqeedo Germany, Dr. Christoph Ballin and Dr. Friedrich Böbel, to take a closer look at the topic of electric boat drives in 2004. The idea of an electric motor for use on Lake Starnberg gave rise to the Torqeedo brand.
