Episode Synopsis
First cars. Now… boats. But is electric propulsion fit-for-purpose on the water? Are punters ready to make the switch? And what are its limitations?The marine industry is riding a wave of transformation in the way boats are powered - from diesel to fully decarbonised. And helping to lead that charge is a Northland company that few of us really know anything about. In this episode we speak with Fiona Bycroft, CEO of Whangārei-based marine electric propulsioninnovator Naut. We speak about what’s happening in this sector, general acceptance of the technology, its limitations, barriers to growth, and whether Northland is the right place to build the company into the next stages of its growth.
