Eco Factor: Low-emission superyacht will be powered by a hybrid propulsion system.
Chinese shipyard Kingship has begun construction on their new 44m superyacht – the Green Voyager. The yacht was presented at the Singapore Superyacht Conference and aims to introduce a completely new eco-friendly design fleet. The Green Voyager has been designed to break new environmental and efficiency barriers.
Designed by Axis Group Yacht Design, the Green Voyager is a low environmental impact 44m motor yacht that is powered by a hybrid propulsion system that runs on electric motors and diesel. Moreover, the superyacht aims to better efficiency by 16 percent in propulsion and 20 percent for hotel loads alongside an unprecedentedly low level of emissions.
The eco-friendly superyacht has a top speed of 16knots and a cruising speed of 13.5knots. The electric motors of the yacht get powered by a lithium-iron phosphate battery pack.
