ACEL Power and Iconic Zero-Emission Vessel "Porrima P111" Partner for Landmark International Launch
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 27, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ACEL Power Inc., a Canadian leader in intelligent electric propulsion systems, is proud to announce its participation in the relaunch of Porrima P111—the world's first zero-carbon vessel to circumnavigate the globe without fossil fuels. This collaboration marks the first phase of an ongoing partnership with Porrima to scale intelligent electric systems for auxiliary and main propulsion in future vessels. Originally built in Switzerland and launched in 2010, Porrima made history by completing four global tours powered entirely by renewable energy. After arriving in Taiwan in 2023, the vessel has undergone more than a year of advanced retrofitting in southern Taiwan. The upgraded ship, now named Porrima P111, stands as a symbol of global collaboration in marine innovation and sustainability. The official launching ceremony took place on May 22, 2025, at Xingda Port, Kaohsiung City. Hosted by the Co-Founder of Porrima Stan Shih, the event was attended by Taiwan's Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Chia-lung, Palau President Surangel Whipps Jr. and First Lady Valerie Whipps, highlighting growing diplomatic and environmental cooperation in the Pacific region. The presence of Pacific leaders reflects the growing alignment between technology, sustainability, and diplomacy — a vision ACEL Power supports as we expand into Asia-Pacific markets. As part of this groundbreaking partnership, ACEL Power is collaborating with Porrima to deliver its Intelligent Electric Series for the vessel's Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) tender, utilizing its 50HP system with 40Kwh Battery pack. More than electrification, this integration represents a leap towards intelligent marine mobility — combining zero-emission performance with digitalization. Together, ACEL and Porrima are setting a new global benchmark for sustainable, smart marine innovation. By contributing to this flagship project, ACEL Power is proud to join a global ecosystem of innovators committed to redefining the future of maritime mobility. Porrima was co-founded by Acer Group founder Stan Shih and "Blue Economy" author Gunter Pauli, with a vision to position net-zero marine innovation as a pillar of future industry. The vessel's retrofit was led by a cross-industry collaboration driven by Shih, leveraging Taiwan's industrial capabilities to build a new zero-carbon marine supply chain. "This moment marks both a celebration of the past and a bold step into the future," said Anthony Liu, CEO of ACEL Power. "We're honored to power part of Porrima's journey and excited to expand access to electric propulsion through our partnership with VIVIC." About ACEL Power ACEL Power, headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, is a pioneering manufacturer of electric outboard propulsion systems, leading the marine industry in innovation and sustainability. Noted for introducing the world's first mass-produced 50 and 75HP electric motors, ACEL Power is committed to shaping a sustainable future through the creation of a smart electric eco-system. With a forward-looking vision, ACEL aims to offer a comprehensive range from 1HP to 650HP, establishing new benchmarks for marine propulsion in performance, safety, and longevity. Leveraging patented technology and integrated software solutions, ACEL Power is driving change towards a cleaner, more efficient boating experience.

In 2017, the solar energy system was strengthened with an intelligent kite operated by a robot and hydrogen made from seawater. After sailing the equivalent of four times around the world, Porrima is ready to industrialize these zero emissions ships which are 20% boat and 80% technologies. These ships support sustainable local economic growth and stimulates entrepreneurship for the common good.

ACEL Power Signs Strategic Distribution Agreement with En-Syst to Expand Electric Marine Propulsion in Southeast Asia
SINGAPORE, May 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ACEL Power Inc., a Canadian innovator in electric marine propulsion, has entered into a distribution agreement with Singapore-based En-Syst Equipment & Services Pte Ltd. This strategic partnership grants En-Syst distribution rights for Singapore and across select ASEAN markets, including Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and more. The collaboration marks ACEL Power's formal entry into Southeast Asia's fast-growing marine electrification sector, supporting the region's transition toward zero-emission marine technologies—especially in commercial, transport, and protected waterway segments. Southeast Asia's Electric Marine Moment A region of island with millions relying on short-haul ferries, water taxis, dive boats, and resort shuttles daily, the region represents one of the largest untapped markets for electric propulsion globally. Governments across ASEAN are introducing low-emission maritime zones, while tourism operators, fleet owners, and municipalities are seeking quieter, cleaner, and more efficient vessels. A recent study by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) forecasts that electric propulsion systems could power up to 50% of small to mid-sized vessels in Southeast Asia by 2035, as costs fall and emissions standards tighten. 'This partnership with En-Syst is another major milestone for ACEL as we scale globally,' said Natasha Chawla, VP of Sales and Marketing at ACEL Power. 'With over three decades of experience powering mission-critical infrastructure across APAC, En-Syst is ideally positioned to bring our technology to market and help accelerate the shift to sustainable boating.' A Turnkey Solution for the Region En-Syst will distribute ACEL's entire portfolio, the full Intelligent Electric Series, including 50HP, 75HP, 150HP, and 250HP outboards—each part of a high-voltage, fully integrated system combining modular battery packs, digital throttle controls, onboard touchscreen interface, and smart connectivity. The motors deliver up to 95.8% powertrain efficiency, while the high-voltage LFP battery packs feature an expandable architecture that supports seamless system scalability for extended range configurations. Advanced software provides real-time diagnostics, remote monitoring, and performance optimization, delivering a fully intelligent experience for modern marine operations. In addition to outboards, ACEL's offering extends to inboard propulsion systems and ACEL X-tend range extender, gas-and diesel-powered generators for hybrid applications. 'We are excited to partner with ACEL Power to bring next-generation marine propulsion to Southeast Asia,' said Teo Han Leong, Director of En-Syst. 'Our region is ready for a leap forward in digitalization and electrification. From tourism and transport to utility vessels, the demand for cleaner and smarter marine solutions is rapidly growing. ACEL's integrated system provides a reliable, software enabled platform that aligns with what our customers want today—and what regulations will require tomorrow.' En-Syst will maintain local inventory, offer installation and technical support, deploy demo boats, and lead OEM activations and regional trade show initiatives to grow dealer and customer adoption.
