Neom has ordered an initial batch of eight Candela P-12 electric foiling water taxis to be deployed on its planned water transport network

"The P-12 is designed to create zero-emission water transport systems which have significant improvements over traditional water commuting," said Candela's founder and CEO, Gustav Hasselskog. "Unlike legacy systems with large, slow, and energy-inefficient conventional ferries, the Candela P-12 is a smaller and faster unit, allowing much more frequent departures and quicker journeys for passengers.

The P-12 can accommodate up to 30 passengers, depending on configuration, and rises above the water on computer-guided hydrofoils when take-off speed is reached. Its C-POD motors can zip it to a service speed of 25 knots (28.77 mph) while its 252-kWh battery bank is reckoned good for more than 2 hours per charge.

The project "Makün: The Mantle of Chile" was selected as the winning proposal to develop the interior architecture and façade for the Chilean pavilion at the Universal Exposition 2025, to be held in Osaka (Japan) between April 13 and October 13 next year.

The proposal of "Makün: The Mantle of Chile" proposes to structure a textile pavilion through a mantle made by 200 Chilean weavers from La Araucanía (from five different communities in that region), which will be taken to Japan to be installed in the pavilion. " Makün" is a word of Mapuche origin that means mantle or blanket (protective garment) that appeals to the traditional textile culture of the Mapuche people.
