Eco Factor: Concept yacht powered by onboard solar panels.
Aiming to make your weekend cruises sustainable designers over at Novague Studio have conceptualized an environmentally friendly yacht that is propelled by a zero-emission electric engine. The stunning yacht includes two solar panels placed on the sides of the boat, which can be unfurled when power in the onboard batteries deplete.
The solar panels spread outwards like wings of a bird and absorb solar energy. The energy generated by the photovoltaic members is stored in battery packs for successive usage. The simple shape of the yacht reduces drag and betters the efficiency of the electric propulsion system.
