Swedish electric boat builder Candela plans to begin marketing its new hydrofoil craft to customers this year. The all-electric boat uses technology that allows it to glide above the surface of the water making it up to 95% more energy efficient than conventional boats. "The idea with Candela is to speed up the transition to fossil fuel-free lakes and oceans. And to do that, you have to make an electric boat that is not only vastly better than today's electric boats, but vastly better than combustion engine boats. You have to make the very best boat you can," the company's communications manager, Mikael Mahlberg, told Insider magazine.
