Shanghai Jiushi Pure Electric Sightseeing Boat

The "Shanghai Jiushi," which entered service on the Huangpu River in September 2023, is the first pure electric sightseeing vessel on Shanghai‘s iconic waterway, marking a historic milestone in the city’s green transition and fully initiating the zero‑carbon upgrade of Huangpu River cruise ships. With a total length of 41 meters, a beam of 11.7 meters, a three‑deck design, and a passenger capacity of 150, the “Shanghai Jiushi” features a distinctive diamond‑faceted carbon fiber exterior and a glass curtain‑wall design. CATL‘s battery solution, which supports a cruising range of 5 ‑ 6 hours, plays a central role in enabling this benchmark project. As the first all‑electric sightseeing ship on the Huangpu River, the “Shanghai Jiushi” sets a replicable model for the electrification of inland waterway passenger vessels and acts as a flagship demonstration of Shanghai’s “green, low‑carbon, and zero‑emission” vision for its waterfront.
