IGY Marinas and Aqua superPower Launch First Electric Marine Charging Station in Sardinia

IGY Marinas, a global leader in marina operations, has partnered with Aqua superPower to establish the first marine electric charging station in Sardinia. The cutting-edge Aqua 75 rapid charging station is now operational at IGY Portisco Marina, furthering IGY's commitment to sustainability and innovation in the maritime sector.

Sustainable Boating: A Leap Forward for Costa Smeralda

Following successful installations at IGY Vieux-Port de Cannes, this new facility strengthens the network for electric boat charging across Europe. Adrian Grijincu, General Manager at IGY Portisco Marina, expressed his enthusiasm:
"We are thrilled to introduce state-of-the-art solutions for sustainable boating. Our mission is to offer innovative services without compromising the excellence and comfort of our clients."

Located at the gateway to Costa Smeralda, IGY Portisco Marina provides 589 berths for vessels up to 90 meters in length, set in an exclusive environment with crystal-clear waters, advanced security, and a range of luxury amenities.

Sustainability and Technology: The Future of Boating

IGY Portisco Marina already embraces eco-friendly practices, including:

  • 100% renewable energy
  • Advanced recycling systems
  • Water/oil separators to prevent marine pollution
  • Floating booms for managing fuel spills

These initiatives reduce environmental impact, preserve natural resources, and promote cleaner boating practices.

The Electric Charging Revolution in Boating

Karen Gill, COO of Aqua superPower, highlighted the importance of this partnership:
"Expanding our network to Sardinia is crucial for the development of electric boating in the Mediterranean. With our infrastructure, we make marine journeys more sustainable and accessible."

The Aqua 75 station allows electric vessels to be charged in 20-90 minutes, supporting the growing adoption of zero-emission boats.

A New Horizon for Electric Boating

IGY Portisco Marina thus becomes a landmark for eco-conscious boaters, offering the opportunity to explore unique locations such as the Maddalena Archipelago, only 20 nautical miles away.

With the increasing demand for electric boats, the future of boating is heading towards sustainable innovations like those provided by IGY Marinas and Aqua superPower.

IGY Marinas and Aqua superPower's initiative represents a significant advancement in marine technology and environmental conservation, setting a benchmark for others in the maritime industry.
