Imagine a Journey Onboard a Greenline 45 Coupe – Palma to Ibiza
To illustrate the ideal application of the hybrid system, Greenline present a real-world example featuring a short journey aboard the 45 Coupe. Note that the consumption figures include not only marina manoeuvres but also the use of onboard home appliances and air-conditioning in smart mode. This scenario was based on sunny days with calculations including solar kickback.
1. Undocking
In the early morning, the Greenline 45 Coupe yacht smoothly left the dock using its electric motor. After a quick fuel top-up at the fuel station, it continued its journey from the marina. The battery state 1-2nm off shore marina was at approximately 82%.
2. Switch to diesel mode
The 20nm journey from Palma to Andratx takes about one hour at an average speed of 20kts. In diesel mode the electric motor turns into a generator and charges the LiPo batteries with an impressive 28 kW. After 15 minutes, the battery is already back at 100%.
3. Weekend stay at anchor
For this example, the boat is at anchor in the bay for 48 hours. All of the home appliances including the air-conditioning are in smart mode and running off the LiPo battery. Including the electric manoeuvring in the bay the battery is at approximately 10% 48 hours later.
4. Switch to diesel mode
Departing Andratx towards Ibiza, the Greenline 45 Coupe cruises to Ibiza using its efficient diesel engine. The electric motor turns again into a generator and charges the LiPo batteries with an impressive 28 kW. After the two-hour ride the yacht arrives with 100% battery.
5. Ibiza stay
Approaching beautiful Ibiza, switch into electric mode. The silence of the electric engine makes the entry into the bay seamless and noise-free. The Greenline 45 Coupe stays in the north of Ibiza for 48 hours. All of the home appliances, including the air-conditioning in smart mode, run off the battery. After the 48 hours, the battery is at 10%.
Welcome to the future of yachting.
