Oceanvolt

Oceanvolt is a Finnish boat electric motor manufacturer founded in 2004 by Janne Kjellman.

Oceanvolt is headquartered in Vantaa, Finland.

The company currently produces two types of propulsion systems for electric boats: saildrives and shaftdrives.

Oceanvolt has received several awards for its SD8.6 saildrive system, the latest being the 2013 Pittman Innovation Award given by SAIL Magazine for Oceanvolt's "compact robust design"[1] featuring waterproof permanent magnet motor with closed circulation liquid cooling, single lever control with motor status shown by LEDs, and folding propeller which doubles as a hydrogenerator,[2] silently extracting several kilowatts of electric power from the boat's forward motion while under sail.
