Intelligent power for modern yachts
Hybrid Power Center enables powerful electric systems onboard – quietly, efficiently, and intelligently – by combining PTO generation, battery power, and smart load management into one coordinated system. Built for yachts where silence, capability and control matter.
The challenge
More onboard power shouldn't mean more noise, weight, or complexity
Traditional solutions often mean:
-
Oversized generators running for short peak loads
-
Always-on gensets at anchor and overnight
-
Heavy hydraulic systems to handle momentary power demands
-
Fragmented power logic with limited prioritization
Hybrid Power Center replaces this thinking with a system-level power architecture.
The solution
One coordinated power system
Hybrid Power Center combines three elements into one coordinated system:
- PTO generation
Uses available load margin on the main engines to produce power efficiently while cruising. - Battery power
Supplies energy silently to onboard systems without running generators. - Intelligent load management
Distributes power dynamically, prioritizing critical loads and managing peak demand automatically.
The result is power that is available when it’s needed, not just when generators are running.
What it replaces
A different way of thinking about onboard power
Hybrid Power Center reduces reliance on:
-
Oversized generators
-
Always-on gensets
-
Hydraulic dependency for peak loads
-
Disconnected power systems without prioritization
What it unlocks
Quiet operation. High capability. Predictable performance.
- Silent anchoring and overnight operation
Run key systems without generator noise or exhaust fumes. - Long-runtime DC thrusters and station keeping
Comparable operational capability to hydraulics, without hydraulic complexity. - Reduced generator hours
Lower service frequency, less wear, and improved onboard comfort. - Cleaner power quality (low THD)
Improved conditions for sensitive onboard electronics. - Future-ready 48V architecture
Designed for modern electric loads and system expansion.
Power, exactly when it's needed
Designed for real-word operation
Cruise
- PTO generators produce efficiently
- Batteries are recharged rapidly
- No need to run gensets purely for charging
Anchor/Overnight
- Systems run from battery power
- Generators remain off
- Silent, fume-free onboard experience
High-demand moments
- Intelligent prioritization protects critical loads
- Peak loads handled without oversizing generators
Technical proof points
