Top 100: Building Green Giants Episode Three 'Eco-Engineering' Launches

Watch the brand new episode here.

Episode 3 turns to the engineers responsible for making a superyacht function to the best of its ability, and how the ultra-advanced technology developed in the superyacht industry aided by owners enables a continual push towards a greener planet.

"Superyachts are some of the cleanest vessels in the world. Every industry has its own responsibility, and it is our responsibility to be in touch with the planet. We want a future that doesn't rely on fossil fuels, that future is zero," says Paris Baloumis, Group Marketing Manager at Oceanco. 

"In order to have a chance to succeed, we need to pull together all of our resources. We need to explore alternative fuels such as hydrogen, methanol, bio-diesel and from gas to liquid. We need to ensure the whole logistic chain." adds Peter Lürssen. 

Regulatory bodies responsible for transitioning our industry towards net zero only have around 28 years to make measurable progress. With little time ahead and legislation becoming stricter, the necessity for change is vital: whether its compliance to the latest engineering regulation or the ability to secure the resell value of your multi-million dollar purchase.

As we witness the biggest energy transition of the century, it has become clear that some of the solutions surrounding greener energy come with their own unique challenges. 'Eco-Engineering' investigates what the industry seeks to do when the energy infastructure is not yet fully available, and how it can become possible to power the likes of a 100m superyacht on pure battery operation alone.
