Candela recognised in World’s Top GreenTech Companies 2026 by TIME and Statista

The recognition comes from  World’s Top GreenTech Companies 2026 by TIME and Statista, a ranking of companies helping drive the transition to a greener world.

The ranking comes as industries look for cleaner and more efficient technologies, while rising energy demand puts pressure on infrastructure to modernise. Through the ranking, TIME and Statista highlight companies developing solutions that can reduce environmental impact and support more sustainable systems.

Candela’s inclusion reflects the role electric hydrofoil technology can play in transforming waterborne transport. Conventional boats consume large amounts of energy because they push through water. This creates drag, wake, noise, and emissions. Candela’s vessels lift above the surface on computer-controlled hydrofoils, reducing drag and making electric marine transport far more efficient.

This allows Candela’s boats and ferries to combine high speed with low energy use, low wake, reduced noise, and zero direct emissions. For cities, ferry operators, resorts, and waterfront communities, the technology offers a better way to use waterways without adding pollution or disturbance to sensitive marine and urban environments.

As transport systems look for cleaner alternatives, Candela’s electric hydrofoils show how passenger travel on water can become faster, quieter, and more sustainable.
