Foutaine Pajo /Lagoon
La Rochelle
Fountaine Pajot, a catamaran manufacturer from La Rochelle, France, has integrated a cleantech solution to boost sustainability in their electric catamarans. They have installed four Bio-sourced vertical axis wind turbines on the catamaran's mast to meet the growing demand for renewable energy. This innovation helps reduce battery strain when anchored and efficiently recharges them while sailing. It highlights Fountaine Pajot's commitment to eco-friendly maritime technology, promoting lower carbon footprints and extended voyages without greenhouse gas emissions. This initiative sets a sustainability benchmark for the marine industry.
- Attained a 95% recyclability rate for the wind turbine, significantly minimizing environmental waste.
- Realized a return on investment (ROI) in 8 years, based on current electricity prices, enhancing financial sustainability.
Philéole comes from the desire to use the force of natural elements. The wind is everywhere around us, with different forces, more or less stable or turbulent. It is present in all types of environments, whether it’s an energetically isolated environment or a hyper-connected urban environment, whether it’s a marine or terrestrial environment. Today, our solution is focused on the energy developed by the little air and turbulence. In order to participate in a planet where life is good, let's create today, thanks to the wind and the natural materials used, the solution that allows tomorrow to be more respectful of it. To meet this challeng,e Phileole has created a 4-blade “wind turbine” with a vertical axis. Our wind turbine aims at providing a sustainable, ecological, green and bio-sourced energy production to any human who would like to be independent energetically (sailboats, private houses and buildings, and highways, street lighting).
