THE FUTURE

The DAWN TRUST is engaged with a major regional University to design and develop an integrated electric propulsion system, that allows the boat to be operated electrically when wind is not available.

The DAWN will act as a floating test bench for students to actively engage in developing the operating algorithms required, and components employed.

It is anticipated that the developed systems will be marketed commercially through a joint venture.

This project to be launched in Q3 2024.

With the experience gained providing a community hub for Essex coastal communities, (through partnering with local CVS providers) , it is proposed to create an intermediary CIC company to engage with other local CVS agencies to provide similar services to other coastal communities in the Thames Estuary.

This project will be launched in Q2 2025
