The bluewater sailing configuration consists of two twin Deep Blue 50 kW electric sail-drives, produced in cooperation with ZF, two high-capacity Deep Blue lithium-ion BMW i3 batteries, and a comprehensive energy management system that stores clean energy and recharges the batteries while sailing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the yacht&#8217;s first test run, the hydrogeneration system provided enough electricity to power one hundred percent of the devices on board at a cruising speed of seven to eight knots. The addition of solar PV, planned for the second phase of the Excess 15 project with <strong>Deep Blue Hybrid<\/strong>, will expand the reach of the system and provide even more hybrid power and onboard comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Herv\u00e9 Piveteau, Excess Product Manager, was one of the first to board the Excess 15 with <strong>Deep Blue Hybrid<\/strong> for a navigation test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe first thing to be noticed is the noise reduction and the improved handling. Torqeedo makes it easier to maneuver the yacht even in confined spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second aspect to underline is the abundance of available energy thanks to the large lithium-ion batteries. The energy management system provides regular updates on how much energy is being consumed and generated. Observing the energy flow of the yacht unconsciously has a positive impact on sailors&#8217; behavior and consumption, without any sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third interesting aspect of an electric propulsion catamaran is what we call &#8220;hybrid sailing&#8221;, which combines the use of wind and electric propulsion. The precision with which it\u2019s possible to control the engines is amazing. Sailing with the engines at low revs is ultra-efficient and allows to travel longer, essentially generating wind, without compromising the sailing sensations or the pleasure of a silent sailing experience,\u201d says Herv\u00e9 Piveteau.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"An_important_mission_a_shared_commitment\"><\/span>An important mission, a shared commitment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnboard energy management and questions about alternative propulsion are some of the most popular topics in the <strong>Excess Lab<\/strong>,\u201d says Herv\u00e9 Piveteau. The Excess Lab is an online forum that connects Excess experts directly to their current and potential customers. This forum is open to everyone to ask questions, exchange opinions and invite collaboration and is helping Excess to make great progress in the world of navigation. \u201cThe Excess Lab community is interested in onboard systems and technology, the innovations to come. We knew that hybrid propulsion was the right move and we couldn&#8217;t wait to make it,\u201d says Herv\u00e9 Piveteau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project is part of Groupe Beneteau&#8217;s global strategy, which is currently implementing hybrid engine designs across a wide variety of brands and boats to help further reduce the brand&#8217;s emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-container-2 wp-block-gallery-1 wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/navigazione-sostenibile-excess-presenta-il-rivoluzionario-progetto-ibrido-excess-15-02-scaled.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img data-id=\"1108\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.deutzmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/navigazione-sostenibile-excess-presenta-il-rivoluzionario-progetto-ibrido-excess-15-02-1024x512.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1108\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\"><em>High-tech collaboration: the brand new Deep Blue engine with ZF saildrive.<\/em><br><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen Groupe Beneteau hinted at a collaboration with <strong>Torqeedo<\/strong>, I spoke in favor of a frontline role for Excess\u201d, recalls Thibaut de Montvalon, Excess Brand Director. \u201cEfficiency plays a crucial role in navigation. This also means having a boat with a slim profile, easy to handle, and which invites connecting with nature. Ninety percent of today&#8217;s catamarans place an emphasis on luxury, losing touch with the sensations &#8211; the unique emotions &#8211; of sailing. Excess builds catamarans for sailors: catamarans that make skippers feel at one with the wind and waves but offering at the same time all the necessary comforts to allow friends and family to enjoy the pleasure of this adventure to the fullest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The <strong>Excess 15 <\/strong>is the natural first step in the world of the integration of hybrid electric engines on board of catamarans. The construction of a yacht, simple to manage, to maneuver and in harmony with nature, is part of the DNA of our brand&#8221;, says Thibaut de Montvalon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cProjects focused on electric navigation, such as the one we are currently undertaking with Groupe Beneteau, are defining the future of the marine industry,\u201d says Phillip Goethe, Director of Sales at <strong>Torqeedo<\/strong>. \u201cCreating partnerships to deliver a better, sustainable and enjoyable boating experience is Torqeedo\u2019s mission. The Excess 15 proves us that this is possible.&#8221;<br><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Cannes Yachting Festival, Excess presented Excess 15, the first hybrid catamaran powered by&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2172,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[226],"tags":[281,287,288,289,426,429,459,465,478,566,607,608],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 -
