Over seven hundred guests witnessed the launch of the superyacht that will introduce the green methanol fuel cell system for zero-impact energy production to the market.
Sanlorenzo achieves a significant milestone in its journey of radical technological innovation towards carbon neutrality. During the 2024 Élite Days, an exclusive event dedicated to its yacht owners, the first unit of the 50Steel was launched. This is the world's first superyacht that, in July 2024, will be delivered with a Green Methanol Reformer Fuel Cell system, capable of powering the onboard hotel systems with zero emissions.
Innovation and sustainability are not the only features: 50Steel will also introduce another groundbreaking concept to the market that is set to mark the history of the yachting industry—the HER (Hidden Engine Room) system. This revolutionary onboard concept maximizes space, creating an additional living area and modifying the traditional layout of the boat.
"With the launch of the 50Steel, Sanlorenzo celebrates a fundamental milestone in its history, embodying the spirit of innovation and sustainability. The new line of superyachts reflects the pioneering spirit and passion for challenges that have always guided us in the design and construction of our fleet," declares Cav. Massimo Perotti, Chairman and CEO of the Sanlorenzo Group. "I believe what sets us apart is our ability to drive industry innovation, embracing cutting-edge solutions not only in design, always elegant and comfortable, but also in technology and sustainability, to achieve the ambitious goals of reducing our environmental footprint."
