METSTRADE 2025 occupies 112,200 m² across 11 halls at the RAI Centre in Amsterdam from November 18–20, with representatives from roughly 135 countries and a record presence of nearly 80 electric propulsion exhibitors concentrated in the Next Generation Propulsion Zone and the Foiling Pavilion.

Event footprint, logistics and exhibit zones

Freight and booth configuration at METSTRADE must accommodate large propulsion demos and battery systems, so the Next Generation Propulsion Zone is set up for safe handling of Li-ion systems and propulsion test rigs, while the Foiling Pavilion supports lightweight composite displays and dynamic product demonstrations. Organizers coordinate staging areas and on-site power to meet the electrical load requirements for live demonstrations and charging stations.

Why these zones matter to exhibitors and buyers

Concentrating electric and hybrid technologies into dedicated pavilions simplifies comparative evaluation for marina managers, charter operators and tour providers who are assessing upgrades for fleets, from tender boats to light commercial vessels. For tourism stakeholders, this clustering makes it easier to evaluate solutions that reduce emissions on fiestas en yates, alquiler de yates exclusivos para eventos, and small cruise tenders.

Directory snapshot: what to expect at exhibitor booths

Many booths present integrated systems combining batteries, BMS, inverters and electric drives. Trade visitors will find manufacturers, system integrators and service providers showcasing turnkey solutions suited to everything from electric tenders to hybrid coastal cruisers.

LiFePO4 Battery Solutions (example)

ACES Energy was founded in 2015 to deliver battery packs that can replace lead-acid systems with lower lifecycle cost and improved performance. The company emphasizes in-house BMS development and automated testing to ensure quality and longevity, important considerations when fitting vessels used in tourism and charter operations where reliability and safety are paramount.

Advantages over lead-acid batteries

  • Higher energy density and longer cycle life
  • Lower total cost of ownership due to longer service intervals
  • Smaller weight and footprint, freeing up payload for passengers or equipment
  • Faster charging and better depth-of-discharge performance

Business implications for tourism operators

Electric propulsion reduces noise and emissions, enhancing guest comfort on visitas a museos con guías en directo, small coastal cruises and safaris ecológicos. Operators evaluating retrofits will look at charging logistics at marinas, battery swap options for high-utilization charter boats, and the impacts on turnaround times for paquetes de cruceros and day-trip itineraries.

Considerations for tour planners and marina managers

  • On-site charging infrastructure and grid capacity
  • Regulatory compliance and safety protocols for Li-ion storage
  • Maintenance workflows and staff training
  • Guest experience advantages such as quieter operation and zero local emissions

The METSTRADE programme and the DAME Design Awards alongside the IBI Boat Builders Awards provide benchmarks for designers and operators seeking reputable suppliers and award-winning solutions that can be advertised to guests as part of a sustainable travel experience.

Highlights of the electric boating field at METSTRADE include advances in battery chemistry, integrated propulsion packages, and lightweight foiling systems that together enable new kinds of maritime leisure offerings—from silent river cruises to high-performance day charters.
