Fischer Panda GmbH, based in Paderborn/Germany, is a world-renowned manufacturer of hybrid-electric systems and electric drive systems as well as generators for marine and vehicle applications. Fischer Panda offers individually tailored solutions from a single source - whether as 100% battery operation in conjunction with wind and solar energy for purely electric driving, as a parallel hybrid with electric motor for "silent cruising" or "long range" with a conventional combustion engine or as a system with generator support for propulsion (range extender) and on-board power supply. Fischer Panda engines are available from 1.7 kW up to 100 kW as a POD engine, shaft engine and as a parallel hybrid. The electric propulsion systems are designed for commercial boats, pleasure craft, passenger ferries and leisure applications. The highly efficient Fischer Panda motors are characterized by: - Permanent magnet technology - quiet operation (no gearbox) - high torque from the first revolution, even at low speeds - easy installation, low maintenance. Fischer Panda marine generators for on-board power supply or to support the electric propulsion system are available up to 48 kW. Fischer Panda variable-speed hybrid DC generators (VS Hybrid Power) have been specially developed for boats with electric propulsion. They are characterized by their modern and electronically controlled hybrid charger, which enables a wide speed range at constant voltage.
