Yachting | 2026<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cZero\u201c is the first superyacht of her size to run entirely without fossil fuels \u2013 the result of over 60,000 hours of research and development. Now nearing completion, this groundbreaking sailing yacht is a joint project by Vripack Yacht Design and Vitters Shipyard. Scheduled for delivery in 2026, \u201cZero\u201c marks a major step forward in sustainable yacht design, seven years after the concept was born. Her mission: to match \u2013 and even surpass \u2013 conventional standards of performance and comfort, powered solely by renewable energy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/a><\/span>

\u201cZero\u201c combines wind, solar, and thermal energy for propulsion. At the core is a five-megawatt-hour battery system \u2013 roughly equivalent to the capacity of 88 Tesla vehicles. Energy is generated through multiple sources: hydrogenerating thrusters harvest power from water flow while sailing, 100 square metres of hybrid solar panels capture sunlight, and an onboard wind turbine converts offshore winds into electricity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/a><\/span>

But the innovation does not stop with propulsion. Every onboard system \u2013 from lighting and hotel load to utilities \u2013 runs on electricity
\nand is managed by an advanced software platform. Beyond her sustainable operations, \u201cZero\u201c will also serve as a floating research platform, supporting studies on renewable marine technologies and ocean sustainability. All data and findings will be shared openly via FoundationZero.org.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/a><\/span>

Daten werden zug\u00e4nglich<\/h2>\n

Die technische Innovation geht jedoch \u00fcber die reine Energieversorgung hinaus. Alle Systeme an Bord \u2013 von der Beleuchtung \u00fcber die Hotel-Last bis hin zu den Versorgungseinrichtungen \u2013 sind vollst\u00e4ndig elektrisch und werden \u00fcber ein komplexes Softwaresystem gesteuert. Die \u201eZero\u201c soll zudem als Forschungsplattform auf See dienen und Studien zu erneuerbaren Meerestechnologien sowie zur Nachhaltigkeit der Ozeane unterst\u00fctzen. Die im Rahmen des Projekts gewonnenen technischen Erkenntnisse und Daten sollen \u00fcber FoundationZero.org frei zug\u00e4nglich gemacht werden.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/a><\/span>

In addition to private use and occasional charters, \u201cZero\u201c offers accommodation for up to 12 guests. Her interiors feature eco-conscious materials, including pine bark leather and sustainably processed marble with a soft, leather-like finish.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/a><\/span>
