Benetti’s sustainable efforts focus on cutting-edge electrification systems, reducing fuel consumption by 20%, and incorporating hybrid or diesel-electric options across 90% of their models.
The shipyard has also partnered with ENI to use HVO biofuel, cutting CO2 emissions by 1,000 tonnes annually. Additionally, Benetti is fitting yachts with Selective Catalytic Reduction systems to reduce NOx emissions and allow access to marine protected areas.
New yacht models were also unveiled, including the B.Yond 40M and 57M, designed for luxurious exploration with hybrid-electric systems to minimize environmental impact.
The Motopanfilo 45M, a modern take on the classic “Navetta,” features an open Veranda Deck®, while the new B.Loft project blends residential design with the flexibility of megayacht living, offering expansive outdoor spaces and 270-degree panoramic views.
These advancements further solidify Benetti’s dedication to innovation and sustainability in luxury yachting.
