SUPER NOVA, THE WORLDS FIRST PLUG-IN CARBON NEUTRALMEGAYACHT.
A Revolutionary Super Green, Super Fast Solar Hybrid vessel that’s capable of generating enough electricity to offset 7,000 nautical miles of cruising every year.
Richard Sauter Head of design commented. “ Super Nova demonstrates that Carbon Neutral Superyachts are not just a futuristic dream, but a present day fact of life destined to become a ubiquitous reality.”
Super Nova and Formula Zero are the only Superyachts to harness sustainable sources of energy from Bio-fuel Hymax engines, Wingsails, PV Cells, and Power sailing KER, which combined with a Lithium UPS that enables Super Nova to reach her highest speeds and navigate harbors and inland waterways with Net Zero emissions
Cruising at 18 knots a 85 to 100% reduction in GHG emissions is achieved by employing multiple Hymax V8 CR drives supported by fully rotational wingsails, power sailing KER, a 650 square meter solar cell array and UPS backup.

As a Certified Carbon Offset Project Super Nova could save up to 6,000 tons of CO2 per year. Plugged in to shore power she is capable of feeding 400+Mwh’s of electricity to the grid. Enough energy to make 7,000 nautical miles of Carbon Neutral voyages every year.
Super Nova’s winning performance, spacious comfort and Carbon Neutral presence is certain to establish her as the Paradigm Megayacht of our age.
