Event Information
E1 is the first electric raceboat championship sanctioned by the Union Internationale Motonautique (UIM), the world governing body of powerboating. E1 holds an exclusive license with the UIM to promote a racing series on the water powered solely by electric. The championship was established to create a new, competitive on water racing proposition based on clean technologies to protect our waters and coastal areas.
Lagos is the first African city to host this event is no small feat, as it’s bound to draw international attention and long-term investments into the region.
Transforming Marine Mobility
E1’s philosophy has been inspired by the success of other forms of electric racing and how they act as a platform to accelerate sustainable technologies. Series co-founders Alejandro Agag and Rodi Basso aim to apply that same ethos to racing on the water and help decarbonise future leisure boats. Along with being a proving ground for electric technologies, E1 is also committed to making a positive impact beyond racing.
