The company made the superyacht design public on Friday, and it is sure to wow thanks to its eco-credentials, aesthetics, and usage of cutting-edge technology.which showcases the benefits of this forgotten innovation.
Although it is currently predominantly used on utility vessels, more and more companies have begun to substantially increase fuel efficiency on large scale commercial vessels by adding Flettner Rotors.FY.01 is also silently powered by electricity generated by white solar panels on the roof surfaces of the yacht. However, the Flettner rotors remain its main source of energy. Depending on the wind conditions, the force generated by these systems supersedes that of a sail of equivalent size.
The use of this technology leads to a substantial energy consumption reduction and an avoidance of CO2 emissions of up to 40 percent. The yacht even has a backup for its electricity-generating system in the form of high-efficiency batteries that can provide the ship’s required energy over a longer period of time when other systems fail.In addition to this advanced energy system, the yacht boasts some pretty impressive amenities.
In the ship’s two hulls are housed the sustainable drive technology, the ship’s batteries and fuel cells, as well as spacious suites for the crew and guests.3deluxe claims that their latest yacht is a step forward for the entire sustainability industry. “The significant profile of FY.01 can become clearly visible statement not only for the focus on sustainability and innovation by the future owner but also for an industry on the forefront changing the mindset towards a sustainable hedonistic future,” said Björn Asmussen, Ocean Director of 3deluxe.another eco-friendly yacht concept called VY-01 that emphasized a nature-first engineering strategy, aiming to maximize open, light-intensive spaces.
