There have been quite a few threads previously around replacing diesel propulsion with electric and the general consensus is not quite practicable.
However, on my dog walk today, I was wondering how practicable it would be to replace the gas system on board with electric/solar/induction hob? Presumbly we are much closer to that being suitable for UK based boats?
Let's set basis as an AWB, 35ft generic boat based in UK and occupied by a couple. Also assume that this is only to replace the gas system and all other domestic / fridge / instrument loads are already accounted for,
So in that case, how much wattage of solar panels and how many ah's of lithium would be expected to need to replace the gas system?
Thanks
