Rossinavi BluE Technology

In February 2023, Rossinavi released details of its latest project Infinity 42 BluE: a technically advanced superyacht that marks the next step in the development of its BluE philosophy.

The concept was inspired by the ability of phytoplankton to convert sunlight into energy, something which was channelled into a range of hybrid-electric catamarans. Powered by batteries and solar panels, these catamarans are able to complete transatlantic crossings in full-electric mode for 80 percent of the time.

Infinity 42 BluE transfers this vision into a monohull: a 41.1m all-aluminium yacht capable of completing 70 percent of an Atlantic crossing in full-electric mode. Performance and experience are both enhanced onboard Infinity 42, with a reduction of noise, odours, and emissions.

The Rossinavi Artificial Intelligence system will also be featured on infinity 42 BluE, which is used to monitor the vessel’s performance to meet the needs of its guests whilst assisting the crew operationally and providing lower-impact solutions.

NO STRESS: First Hybrid AI Superyacht

Rossinavi saw another sustainable success this year, with the launch of NO STRESS in April. This 50m superyacht is the shipyard’s first hybrid vessel equipped with AI technology, with Enrico Gobbi overhearing her exterior and interior styling.

This sports yacht is powered by two systems: two diesel engines and two electric motors. When in electric mode, the yacht’s power consumption is monitored by an AI system. In keeping with the Italian yard’s drive to facilitate more environmentally friendly cruising, NO STRESS represents the progress in this field, with two independent propulsion systems and up to five different operating modes.

‘We are very proud to launch our first BluE project,’ commented Federico Rossi, Chief Operating Officer of Rossinavi. ‘NO STRESS is a hybrid vessel characterised by a strong sporty attitude. It is a high-performance superyacht with dual fuel: diesel and battery.’

Feadship’s Hydrogen Fuel Cell Powered Superyacht

In April, Feadship announced that its first fuel-cell powered superyacht is under construction. The Dutch yard has proved itself to be a pioneer in sustainable shipbuilding, and this project is an embodiment of this dedication.

This vessel will be hydrogen-powered and fitted with a cryogenic fuel tank which will store liquified hydrogen at around -250 degrees celsius. This store will allow for cruising at moderate speeds and well as powering the onboard hotel load during summer condition.s

Feadship commented that by increasing the use of solar, wind and other renewable energies, green hydrogen production will escalate to buffer those renewable power sources.

Sunreef’s Zero Cat

Sunreef Yachts announced in July that it is currently developing a sustainable superyacht: the Zero Cat. This vessel will work by converting methanol to clean hydrogen, providing self-sufficiency and unlimited autonomy.

She will measure above 90 feet, combining hydrogen power and electric propulsion to achieve a new level of eco-conscious cruising. The result of this green power system will be clean energy generated with zero emissions, used for electric propulsion and hotel loads.

Nicolas Lapp, CTO & Co-founder of Sunreef Yacht commented: ‘Our goal is to revolutionise the industry by offering discerning customers an exceptional zero-emission sailing experience. This project represents a milestone in our ongoing commitment to protecting our oceans and preserving the natural beauty of the sea.’

Winch Design and CdM’s Entirely Sustainable Interior

Challenging conventions and pioneering eco-conscious design, Winch Design has partnered with Cantiere delle Marche to develop a 44m Flexplorer 146 with an entirely sustainable interior. SHe is the third model in the series, set to launch in 2025. The Winch Design Sustainability Specialist has worked alongside EcoNest to achieve global standards for a healthier living environment, marking a new standard for sustainability.

Her interior will fully embody the natural world, using only eco-friendly materials and a colour palette that compliments the clean-leaving environment.

Innovative materials take precedence, including reclaimed seashell composite, eggshell finishes, and carpets that are made from recycled fishing nets. The focal point of the staircase, and a standout design feature, will be a green wall made from preserved moss.

The third Flexplorer 146 showcases a significant step forward in terms of conscious luxury, as well as radiating sheer natural beauty. She marks a significant moment for Winch Design to collate years of research in green alternatives to fruition, emphasising the studio’s ongoing commitment to sustainability.
