Abstract : The power from the sun is contemplated to be one of the most apt renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuels in the marine field. Also, the growing pollution due to trash deposits in the water bodies of our neighbourhoods has increased for the past few years, endangering aquatic life and freshwater resources. This work aims to build a solar-powered boat with maximum efficiency, to inculcate a cleanup system to collect the trash on the water surface using a conveyor belt mechanism within the boat and to develop a user-friendly website for the consumer in order to provide them with the necessary energy details. Such small-scale boats can be initially used in backwater/ small seas for small distance transportation, travel between islands and for cleaning heavily polluted backwaters and adjacent ponds. The implementation of such boats can lead to reduced pollution across the water bodies.
