    Brief

    Cowes Floating Bridge 6 currently relies on four 6v lead-acid batteries to power its DC electrical system, including lighting, electronics, and onboard equipment. Due to production discontinuation of compatible lead-acid batteries in the UK, the organisation is seeking to source and install a replacement power system. The proposed solution involves installing a 48v lithium-ion phosphate battery with an alternator to ensure long-term reliability and reduce future supply chain risks. This modernisation will eliminate dependency on outdated battery technology and address the critical need for sustainable, readily-available power solutions for the floating bridge's operations. Suppliers should have experience with marine electrical systems, lithium battery installation, and alternator integration.
