Molabo, a German manufacturer of high-performance 48 V electric propulsion systems, has unveiled a new serial hybrid system that integrates its low-voltage ARIES drive with Fischer Panda’s lightweight and compact AGT-series generators.
Developed for Team Malizia’s IMOCA racing yacht, the new hybrid system allows boatbuilders to combine electric operation and generator-assisted cruising, offering flexible and ultra-efficient energy management for long-range or high-demand applications. All components operate at 48 VDC to ensure safety and ease of installation without specialized high-voltage certification or equipment.
By combining Molabo’s safe-to-touch propulsion technology with Fischer Panda’s generator expertise, the hybrid platform is designed to offer a scalable, future-ready solution for OEMs and shipyards seeking to deliver low-emission electric and hybrid vessels without the complexity of high-voltage systems.
Because the entire system operates at low voltage, it can be installed by trained shipyard staff without slowing production lines. Owners retain access to Fischer Panda’s worldwide service network for the gensets, while most marine electricians can safely maintain Molabo’s 48 V ARIES drive. The 6-22 kW integrated DC generators are compatible with hydrotreated vegetable oil.
“This new system builds on everything that makes the 48 V platform so effective,” said Tommi Salonen, Head of Global Marine Sales for Molabo. “It delivers extended range and performance for larger vessels or bluewater cruising yet remains simple to install and maintain. The integration with Fischer Panda provides a ready-to-implement hybrid solution that fits seamlessly into existing production workflows.”
Molabo has also developed a new ARIES 50 kW jet-drive in partnership with Kaiser Bootsmanufaktur, demonstrating the adaptability and performance of the electric propulsion platform in compact, high-efficiency applications.
