How much energy should be stored?

You don’t want to run the motor all the time. That would scare the fish. The solution is to store the energy in a (service) battery, from which the inverter will convert the stored energy into 230 V. The battery can be charged with shore power and also with the alternator during the trip. If you plan trips that last several days, make sure your battery has enough capacity to take over for 48 hours, as a rule.

As a rule of thumb, the storage capacity of a lithium battery should be twice the daily power consumption.

SAILBOATS

A modern sailboat is equipped with many electrical devices. Most of the appliances needed to operate the boat generally use DC power. However, larger appliances will require AC power. When it comes to estimating power consumption, some people think it’s as simple as adding up the Watts. But the amount of time you use it is also important. A microwave may use 1,000 Watts, but only for 2 minutes. A refrigerator uses barely 50 Watts, but it runs 24 hours a day.

MOTOR BOATS

A powerboat would not be completely complete without a lot of electrical equipment. Most of the equipment needed to operate the boat will typically use DC power. However, larger appliances will need AC power. How much more energy does this mean? Don’t just look at Watts. A microwave may use 1,000 watts, but only for 4 minutes. A refrigerator/freezer combo might use 100 Watts, but it runs 24 hours a day.

MEGAYACHT

A luxury yacht is overflowing with electrical equipment. The equipment essential to navigation usually runs on DC power while the larger appliances will require AC power. In general, air conditioning is the biggest energy consumer. Washing machines, dryers, and desalination plants are also big energy consumers. Even larger yachts use all kinds of electronic devices, the most unimaginable ones, thus increasing the energy requirements even more.
