The Electric Ship market size is projected to grow from USD 3.3 billion in 2022 to USD 14.2 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 20.0% from 2022 to 2030. The increase in global trade operations and passenger traffic are the primary factors driving the growth of the Electric Ship market. Furthermore, the demand for advanced electrical systems onboard marine vessel is boosting the adoption of Electric Ship systems, which reduces harmful emissions and decreases end-user operating and maintenance costs.

Hybrid Electric segment is expected to account for the largest share in 2022.
Based on type, the hybrid electric segment is projected to dominate the Electric Ship market during the forecast period. Hybridization of ships is one of the major methods by which vessel operators are trying to reduce emission of vessels. Due to major economies driving the stakeholders of the marine industry to lower emissions and provide sustainable solutions, the adoption of hybrid ships are one of the major steps the industry is adopting to fulfil these needs.

The 50-100 km range is projected to lead the market during the forecast period
Based on range, 50-100 km segment is expected to lead the market during the forecast period. 50-100 km range ships usually contain all the mid-sized ships, that are mostly used for inland shipping activities. These ships are easy to be converted to hybrid propulsion or be replaced with fully electric solutions. Due to these factors 50-100km range ships are leading the market.

The Retrofit segment is projected to lead Electric Ship market during the forecast period
Based on End Use, the retrofit segment is projected to lead the Electric Ship market during the forecast period. The retrofit market currently holds lower market share in the end use segment. But in the future with reduction in retrofitting cost the segment is expected to grow faster during the forecast period. Retrofitting will be the leading method for electrifying larger ships that still has a lot of life left.

Europe is expected to account for the largest market share in 2022
The Electric Ships market has been studied for the regions North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. Europe is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The regions has all the major players like ship builders, component manufacturers, system integrators that are key to the electric ships market. The region is also a frontrunner in adopting sustainable solution to cut down emissions. These are some of the factors driving the European electric ships market.
