The SuperYacht Times Party returns for 2025 with Feadship

The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5038" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port of Amsterdam (Company)">Port of Amsterdam</a> has announced that they have successfully completed the first bunkering of liquid hydrogen in the Netherlands.

The bunkering was conducted via a truck-to-ship method, using a dedicated tanker truck operated by Air Products.Bunkering is the process of supplying fuel to vessels and ensures that it is safely transferred and stored for the ship’s operational needs. Traditionally, this involves loading conventional marine fuels, like marine diesel or heavy fuel oil, with modern alternatives including methanol and liquid hydrogen.Built by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8907" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Breakthrough118.8m (389'9&quot;)Feadship2025">Breakthrough</a> is equipped with a 3.2 MW hydrogen fuel cell system, the first of its kind on a superyacht. This system produces electricity through an electrochemical process rather than combustion, generating only water as a by-product and enabling completely emission-free sailing.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/362647/image/large-79a48e640391a20b6ae612836877803a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/362647">Milembe Mateyo, Director of CNB and State Harbour Master of the North Sea Canal, commented on this landmark achievement, “We expect that several alternative marine fuels will coexist in the future. This requires flexibility and foresight from both us and the companies in the port area.”The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5038" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port of Amsterdam (Company)">Port of Amsterdam</a> played a central role in enabling this operation, offering technical guidance to the North Sea Canal Area Environmental Agency (OD) on safety matters. Leveraging its expertise in handling alternative fuels such as liquefied methane and gaseous hydrogen, the port demonstrated its ongoing commitment to advancing clean shipping practices.“We are proud that the first bunkering with liquid hydrogen has now taken place in our port. It demonstrates that hydrogen is a viable solution for zero-emission sailing. This is an important step toward more sustainable shipping and our goal to facilitate the use of sustainable fuels as a Multi Fuel Port,” concluded Mateyo.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/337976/image/large-5e3404c3c887344c11eb13ac843477ce.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/337976">Breakthrough: The ‘world’s first hydrogen fuel-cell superyacht’The steel and aluminium superyacht is the largest yacht to be built by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a>, and the world’s first hydrogen fuel-cell superyacht.

From shipyard roof-top installations to the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge, solar power is having something of a moment, yet it is rarely found on superyachts. What is the current status of solar tech and will it ever increase traction as an onboard renewable on big boats?While solar power is increasingly a key source of renewable energy for national grids, industrial manufacturers – including shipyards – and homeowners, it hasn’t made much impact on the design and operation of superyachts. Aesthetics, practicalities, cost and low energy yield are all blamed to varying degrees, but that hasn’t put off some corners of the yachting industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360288/image/large-3142d2e9e20f6752e2b892eb27c60d32.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360288">No one visiting a boat show in the past few years could have failed to notice the Eco line of catamarans from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1158" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sunreef Yachts (Company)">Sunreef Yachts</a>, for example.

Similarly, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent Yachts</a> set out specifically to develop a range of operationally eco-friendly power cats that draw on solar as the dominant power source and couple that to a complete electric drivetrain.“The solar panels are limited by the space on board, which is why historically we picked a catamaran, and also why we didn’t pick a sailing cat where the mast and sails would impede the sunlight,” says Steve Bell, Vice Chairman of the board of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent Yachts</a> since the company changed ownership in early 2024. “We store as much energy as we can in batteries, which on our Silent 62 is around 300 kilowatt-hours in total. Cruising at six knots uses 20 kilowatts per motor, or 40 kilowatts total, so a simple maths calculation [300 divided by 40] suggests an eight-hour range.”The 62 carries a total of 16.8 kilowatts-peak (kWp) of solar panels, meaning in an ideal scenario the panels would produce 16.8 kilowatts of power. This is never the case, however, as losses through efficiency, angle of sun, dirt on the cells, or any number of factors, always impedes energy generation. It is one of the details that sometimes gets lost in the marketing about the capabilities for generating power from the sun.&nbsp;“On a really good day our 16.8 kilowatts peak of panels will pull around 12 kilowatts,” confirms Bell. “There’s a misconception that kilowatts-peak equals actual kilowatts produced, but that doesn’t happen with any solar panel.”HotelerieThere is also the hotel load to consider. On the Silent 62, this typically equates to around 10 kilowatts when using energy-hungry systems like the air conditioning, which means the solar panels are serving the hotel load while the stored energy is powering the drivetrain. It starts to make more sense if you consider a typical operational profile, the Med cruising around the Balearic or the Greek islands, for example. This may involve two or three hours of motoring to reach a bay, then spending the rest of the day at anchor.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360286/image/large-34e0f2687d1e3643a5ac280cfb228836.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360286">“What we’re also trying to do is manage the hotel load to keep that energy burn to a minimum, including educating our customers about things like turning stuff off when it’s not needed,” Bell says. “That means you effectively get to run the yacht off solar and only need to charge the batteries with the generator every four or five days.”Bell adds that cruising at 3.5 knots reduces drivetrain power draw to around 8 kilowatts. If you minimise hotel load, this could mean free, continuous daylight cruising. But you still wouldn’t be sailing around the world using only solar power: “You could do that, but only if you want to do it at two knots – which people don’t,” adds Bell.For <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5188" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Silent Yachts (Company)">Silent Yachts</a>, whose largest planned model is the 36.74-metre Silent 120 Explorer, scaling up is relatively straightforward for models like the 80, which uses the same propulsion drives as the 62 and has more space for solar panels to handle the increased hotel load. The challenge is transferring the tech to bigger superyachts, where the hotel and propulsion energy demands on energy are exponentially higher. This may suggest there’s a limit to the usefulness of solar as a renewable energy source on superyachts, although that is somewhat missing the point.Substance over styleThe idea of covering every surface of your superyacht with solar cells creates another obstacle centred on aesthetics. Styling is a key driver of owner interest, but one way to integrate solar energy more comprehensively – and less obtrusively – is solar glass. Glass that integrates solar cells to draw power has been around for a long time, and not just in land-based architectural contexts, where the technology is increasingly popular for large public buildings, electric charging stations and even private car ports and domestic terraces.

Sized to fit on a yacht, the array of solar panels at its one-to-one-scale test installation at the shipyard in La Spezia powers a hydrogen production module, which filters and de-ionises seawater through AEM-type electrolysers to produce green hydrogen with 5.0 purity grade at a maximum pressure of 35 bar. The PEM-type fuel cell then uses the hydrogen as fuel to produce clean electricity.

In this case, a key part of the energy production comes from hybrid photovoltaic-thermal (pv-T) panels developed from existing land-based building tech.In general, however, the pace of development of solar tech has been relatively slow, despite next-gen technologies such as perovskite structures that promise to improve the efficiency of panels at lower cost than traditional silicon cells, and allow for novel uses such as the creation of solar paint, or solar fabrics for awnings and sails. But perovskites are still a way off commercialisation and it doesn’t alter the fact that their placement and orientation will remain critical.Painting with lightThe idea of a paint that can capture energy from the sun has been mooted for several years, but so far no such paint has emerged on the market. In fact, there are three possible solar paint technologies currently being explored – even if they are still years away from commercial production or availability.The first is a product developed by a team at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology that absorbs moisture from the air and uses solar energy to break the water down into hydrogen and oxygen, with the hydrogen being used for clean energy.The second, developed by the University of Toronto, uses colloidal quantum dot photovoltaics – essentially nanoscale semiconductors – to capture light and convert it into electricity more efficiently than conventional solar cells. The dots can be tuned to different light spectrums by changing their size.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360281/image/large-68f2bed1eccceb2588d227d89256d950.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360281">Finally, there are perovskites. Named after a Russian mineralogist, perovskites are a type of crystal structure and have been a topic of discussion for a while now. Perovskites offer properties that allow for higher power conversion efficiency (similar to what are known as multi-junction solar cells) and can take liquid form – ideal for solar paint. A team at the University of Sheffield in the UK developed the first spray-on solar cells back in 2014, but more recently scientists at Oxford University have produced a micro-thin perovskite coating with the potential to generate up to nearly twice the amount of energy of current solar panels and can be applied to almost any surface. The researchers believe that over time, perovskites will be able to deliver efficiency exceeding 44 percent, pointing to the increase in yield they were able to achieve during just five years of experimentation, from 6 to 27 percent.Product placement“The difference in efficiency between having a panel flat or tilting is around 25 percent,” says Bell. “That means if you have panels mounted vertically in the hull topsides, or even on sails, then in the midday sun in the tropics you’re not going to get any photovoltaic energy. For example, at 0900 on a beautiful sunny morning in Venice we looked at what the panels on our 62 were producing, and the high-voltage panels – which are around 13 kilowatt peak and typically produce nine to 10 kilowatts – were producing just 1.8 kilowatts.”While the solar industry is constantly talking about new solutions and innovative products, Bell suggests the fact that manufacturers are selling huge numbers of conventional panels means there is less incentive to invest in new tech and new production methods with potentially high start-up costs.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360283/image/large-1ae37d5eaa282b6960df70ddc4073f0d.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360283">“For our new models we’re looking at how to optimise the space for panels based on retaining aesthetics,” he continues. “We are looking at solar panel tech, but I think that isn’t going to change much for the foreseeable future – technology development at the moment is really in batteries and energy management. Indeed, while there have been some improvements in panel efficiency over recent years, by contrast we’ve gained 15 percent capacity for the same physical size of battery over the same period.”It may well be that the sweet spot for yachts that draw on solar power as a key provider of sustainable energy will remain in the 20 to 40-metre bracket, but there’s still no reason why larger yachts should not include solar as part of their power mix. For one, it’s essentially free and it’s green – at least in the operational phase – and anything that reduces the need for fossil fuel power generation is a positive.Moreover, by its very nature it drives a conversation about how to mitigate energy consumption on board, whether through smart zoning, developing new technologies in air conditioning, insulation and lighting, or just more efficient energy management. As solar tech improves with more efficient cells and more innovative materials able to harvest more energy, it’s only going to get more interesting for yachts of any size.This article was featured in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/magazine/how-to-build-it-issue-6" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">Issue 6 of How To Build It</a>.&nbsp;You can read all the articles from this edition&nbsp;<a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/magazine/how-to-build-it-issue-6" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">here</a>, and stay up-to-date with all previous editions&nbsp;<a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/magazine" target="_blank">here</a>.

Solar power is having something of a moment, yet it is rarely found on superyachts.
