« ArchiSolar » Powered by energy from the sea
For the moment, solar boats are powered only by solar cells, with low efficiency. © Turanor Planet Solar © Sun 21
In the same time, technologies are available to extract power from the sea, working with the waves to produce electricity for the grid. © Wave Star Energy > < © Pelamis
« ArchiSolar » is designed to convert solar energy into electric power = high efficiency. Fuel consumption = 0 !!! 4 movable hulls transform waves into energy. Solar panels convert sun into power Wind generator takes power from the air Methanation of organic material
« ArchiSolar » is the demonstrator of the process. But it is also a true yacht planed to cruise around the world for commercial use. The consortium which pilots the project aggregates builders, design offices, universities, National and Local Authorities, equipment providers, environmental associations and, of course, an owner. This fantastic 130’ yacht is, maybe, your next boat. Please contact your agent or: Yves KINARD, naval architect Saint Martin F.W.I.
