Carbon Offset Design Introduces Transcendence, the worlds first Zero Carbon Megayacht with a Top Speed of 25 knots
A state of the art Solar Hybrid design that achieves a 50 to 100% reduction in GHG emissions by employing Mercedes Benz / MTU Bluetec engines to produce the cleanest marine propulsion system in the world.
Richard Sauter head of design commented, »Transcendence is the Carbon Offset Alternative to comparable Hi-performance Megayachts. Her overall size (49m) and maximum speed (25knots) are the same, but alas, her Carbon Footprint is far smaller, often reaching zero » .The currently available green technology present in Transcendence includes:
• Mercedes Benz & MTU Bluetec diesel electric power generation
• Azimuth counter rotating CLT high torque propeller systems.
• Hydro and aerodynamic advances Hi-speed displacement hull design
• Maximum solar cell deployment. (PV deck spoilers rated at 30kws)
• KER (Kinetic energy regeneration)
• Energy efficient equipment, including waste heat recovery
• Computerized energy management, maintenance & guidance.
• Plug-in Lithium UPS rated at 1000Kwh.
Solar cells, KER and Plug-in sources of energy charge a Lithium ion storage system that runs all Hotel services including AC, day and night, The same Lithium UPS allows Transcendence to achieve her maximum speed under peak loads or to navigate in and out of harbors with Zero emissions
As a Carbon Offset Megayacht, Transcendence is a potential 4,000 ton per year Certified Carbon Offset Project. As such, her reduction in CO2 emissions is equivalent to the annual carbon footprint of 1,000 average people on earth.

Take plenty of sunshine and mix them throughly with chrystal clear waters of the mediterranean in all colors of the green and blue from turquoise to emerald, put a little soft breeze, few shaded beaches with pine trees, add some lonely bays and some some rugged coastlines, stir them with exotic islands and generously add, lush green olives, figs and lemon trees . Then, serve generously with bright blue skies, romantic sunsets and enchanting starry nights. How did you like it so far ? Well, if yes then how about a trip called “blue Cruise” We appreciate the valuable contents of your web site and thank you for letting us comment on your article. have a great day…
