Serial hybrid technology

We were the first to introduce a serial hybrid propulsion in the leisure superyacht segment.
Over the years, our proprietary technology has been redefining the standards of premium yachting.

Comfort Intelligence

  • 01

    Zero Vibrations

    By getting rid of fixed machinery, Wider hybrid propulsion system erases the major cause of noise and vibrations, delivering a yachting experience of utmost comfort

  • 02

    Noise Reduction

    Conventional yachts run at a fixed speed. A Wider yacht can reduce the revs according to the power requirements at the time, further increasing the comfort on board.

  • 03

    Optimised Space

    The lack of mechanical connection between the engines and the propulsion units creates more room for livable ambiences and allows for a greater design flexibility.

  • 04

    Tailored Setup

    A personalized power management strategy can be set up to suit the owner’s specific wishes, whether that be noise reduction, high performance or zero emissions.

Real-time monitored performance.

The battery banks lie at the heart of the serial hybrid propulsion system. A Battery Management System constantly monitors the temperature, current, charge level, voltage and other physical parameters. These smart boards communicate with each other so that they can balance the charge produced and therefore optimise performance. Wider use a safer chemistry (LiFePo) instead of a traditional lithium battery.

Efficiency

  • 01

    Minimum waste

    The generators only work when necessary and at their lowest rate of power/consumption. If extra-energy is produced, it is directed to charge the battery banks.

  • 02

    ZEM Mode

    As of today, Wider technology offers a cruising use in Zero Emissions Mode of up to 10 hours and the use of all the hotel and services systems for up to 30 hours.

  • 03

    Reliability

    By producing as much power as it is needed at any given time, engines are less stressed. As a result, maintenance intervals are longer than in traditional yachts.

  • 04

    A.I.

    The Power Management System automatically learns the habits of owner, guests and crew so as to provide the exact amount of energy needed at each time of the day.

Future-conscious. Future-ready.

Our technology is ecological, as it builds on a power management software package specifically developed for the marine environment.

Moreover, it is adaptive, as our Engineering department conceived it in such a way that it is able to embed further developments in the water motion field.
