Eco Factor: Sustainable yacht powered by renewable energy.
British boat designer Alastair Callender has unveiled the design of his new super yacht, the Soliloquy. The 58-meter-long yacht is covered in energy generating photovoltaic cells and will be propelled by renewable wind, solar and marine power.
The three fixed sails of the yacht are covered in photovoltaic cells, which generate ample energy to power the yacht without any emissions. The interiors of the yacht feature the use of recycled leather and natural fiber upholstery. The $60 million super yacht aims to save up to 2000 liters of fuel, which a comparable yacht consumes in one hour.
