The Autark Zero Project
Green Marine Concepts presents:
Introducing the Autark Zero project by Green Marine Concepts, who, together with partners, are developing a prototype of a self-sufficient 12m motor-sailing yacht equipped with electric propulsion and a rigid carbon wing-sail. This yacht is a proof of concept that aims to operate on a zero input, zero output basis, guaranteeing complete autarkic and emission-free sailing.
Autark-Zero is a fully autonomous and autarkic ship, ideal for remote expeditions. It relies solely on wind and solar energy, emitting no diesel or generator fumes. It requires no shore facilities or wastewater disposal, even featuring onboard grow rooms for food production.
Everything needed to operate this yacht is fully generated and processed onboard. This prototype aims to demonstrate and validate innovative technologies and developments, (em)powering and sustainably redefining the experience of leisure yachting.
