Local maritime - Pyxis, Singapore’s Electric Vessel Start-Up, Unveils First Solar-Powered River Cruise for @waterbcruise !
It was our honor to be invited to witness the launch of Pyxis R "Our River, Reimagined", graced by Guest-of-Honour Mr. Baey Yam Keng, Senior Parliamentary Secretary, Ministry of Transport, alongside esteemed industry partners.
Pyxis has officially introduced Singapore’s first solar-powered ferry, the Pyxis R, in collaboration with WaterB, a leading river cruise operator. Beyond being fully electric, Pyxis R’s groundbreaking innovation lies in its pioneering Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, allowing the vessel to export excess solar energy back into Singapore’s electricity grid. This partnership paves the way for piloting a working V2G model, reinforcing the nation’s energy resilience and sustainability goals.
We had the privilege of cruising on the newly unveiled Pyxis R, the first of 10 solar-powered river boats set to be deployed by the end of 2025. Click here to watch the experience.
The experience? Quiet, smooth, and incredibly comfortable—a serene journey along the iconic Singapore River.
Cheers to a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future for Singapore’s waterways! Don’t miss the chance to experience Singapore’s stunning skyline aboard WaterB’s newest vessel, Pyxis R!
