Ark Angel LSV (Life Support Vessel) by Sauter Carbon Offset Design is claimed to be faster and greener than any megayacht in its class. It maximizes ecology, energy, and efficiency in fuel consumption and GHG emissions. Featuring Daimler EPA “on road” turbo compound engines, this solar hybrid Ark angel LSV offers the cleanest marine propulsion system in the world. To give you some clues, at 28knots fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are reduced by 50%, at 18 knots by up to 75% and at 14 knots by up to 85%.

Ocean Empire Superyacht is really a state of the art Superyacht catamaran. This solar hybrid yacht has been designed with 2 hydroponic farms and fishing facilities to harvest the sea. You really can stay as long as you like on the sea in this yacht without being afraid of running out of energy to live. This luxurious yacht hotel energy is supplies from 3 main sources: the sun, the wind, and the wave.

The first and foremost source of energy is from the Sun which powers Solar Cells (covering the entire surface of the vessel) while at the same time illuminating 2 Hydroponic farms.

The second source is energy from the Wind which powers an auxiliary automated SkySail that drives the Ocean Empire to 18+knots while charging her GM ESS2 batteries through power sailing KER.

The third source is energy from Waves captured through Motion Damping Regeneration (MDR). A new form of ATMD (Adjustable Tuned Mass Damper) developed in collaboration with Maurer Sohnes Gmbh

Using these 3 energy sources, this yacht reduces its need in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions drastically.

The first impression of Guardian S Class speed boat, with its shape like a rifle bullet, may seem fast and powerful. But making it environment friendly has been more emphasized during the design process of the yacht concept considering the fact that a world without a living human due to massive global warming pollution may not need to be fast and powerful at all.

Guardian S Class is a carbon fiber solar hybrid vessel that gets power from the combination of a carbon Grossbauteile electric motor and an EPA car regulated Mercedes Benz Bluetec engine, making it 50% less fuel consuming and 100% GHG emission free in comparison with currently available technologies. It comprises a Lithium ion UPS that provides zero carbon cursing for up to 50 nautical miles, while the SunPower array plug-in generates enough energy to motor carbon neutral for around 1000 nautical miles a year. This yacht concept can easily become a milestone for the boat manufacturers to reduce 375 million metric tons of CO2 per year that has been recorded creating by recreational boats, thus massively reducing global warming pollution too.
