According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Electric Outboard Generator market size was valued at US$ 271 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 401 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.6% during review period.
Electric Outboard Generator is a kind of propulsion system for boats which uses electric as power. Outboard electric motor, commonly referred to as “trolling motor” or “electric Outboard motor”, is generally used on very small craft or on small lakes where gasoline motor is prohibited or used as a secondary means of propulsion on larger craft, and can also be used as repositioning thrusters while fishing.
The Electric Outboard Generator market is experiencing significant growth, driven by advancements in battery technology, increasing demand for environmentally friendly marine propulsion solutions, and evolving consumer preferences. Electric Outboard Generators are seen as a viable alternative to traditional gasoline-powered outboard motors, offering lower emissions, reduced noise pollution, and more efficient energy use, making them particularly attractive for recreational boating and commercial marine applications.
Product Types
The Electric Outboard Generator market can be segmented into different product categories based on their power output.
Among these categories, Above 100hp is the fastest-growing product type. This growth is primarily due to the increasing need for high-power electric motors that can handle larger boats and commercial applications, where more power is required for long-distance cruising or heavy-duty use. As battery technology continues to improve, more powerful electric motors are being developed to meet the needs of larger vessels. These motors offer higher torque and extended range, which make them suitable for recreational boats, commercial boats, and even larger municipal and official boats.
In contrast, motors in the 10hp and Below and 10.1-35hp segments continue to dominate in the recreational boating sector, where the demand for smaller, more energy-efficient motors is high. These motors are ideal for small to medium-sized boats, which are commonly used for leisure activities like fishing, family outings, and short-distance travel.
Applications
The Electric Outboard Generator market has a wide range of applications across various boat types, including: Recreation Boats, Commercial Boats, Municipal and Official Boats.
Recreation Boats: Electric Outboard Generators are widely used in recreational boating, where quiet operation, eco-friendliness, and ease of use are highly valued. These boats account for a substantial portion of the market, with Recreation Boats holding around 65% of the global market share. The demand for Electric Outboard Generators in this segment is fueled by the growing popularity of outdoor recreational activities and the increasing environmental awareness of consumers. The ability to operate without noise and exhaust emissions makes electric motors an attractive option for individuals who enjoy fishing, cruising, or other water activities.
