Electricity: Hybridization / Integrated, Onboard Energy Autonomy

Hybridization and energy integration represent a qualitative leap for a boat's autonomy, allowing for optimized management of energy sources and reduced dependence on external sources. At Skysat, with our offshore racing experience, we guide you towards robust solutions adapted to your specific needs. Discover the essential components for a high-performance hybrid or integrated installation here.

Onboard Energy Management

Efficient energy management is crucial for optimizing the performance and lifespan of your system. This involves precise battery monitoring, intelligent load distribution, and judicious use of the various available energy sources.

• Mastervolt/Victron Energy Battery Managers: Monitor battery voltage, current, and temperature in real-time, allowing for charging optimization and protection against deep discharge.
• DC/DC Converters: Adapt voltage between different electrical systems (e.g., 24V to 12V) to ensure compatibility and prevent overvoltage.
• Electrical Supervision Units: These units centralize the control of all onboard electrical circuits, allowing for simplified management and quick problem identification.
• Current Shunts: Accurately measure the current flowing in a circuit, providing essential data for monitoring energy consumption and production.

Alternative Energy Sources

The integration of alternative energy sources, such as solar panels or hydrogenerators, reduces dependence on generator sets and minimizes the environmental footprint of your navigation. The performance of these systems depends on their sizing and integration with the rest of the electrical installation.

• Rigid and Flexible Solar Panels: Convert solar energy into electricity, providing a renewable and silent energy source. The choice between rigid and flexible depends on the available space and the curvature of the installation surface.
• Watt&Sea Hydrogenerators: Produce electricity using the boat's speed, providing a particularly efficient energy source during long passages.
• Rutland Marine Wind Turbines: Capture wind energy to produce electricity, ideal for windy areas.
• MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) Controllers: Optimize solar panel energy production by adjusting voltage and current to maximize output.

Variable Speed Generator Sets

Variable speed generator sets offer an alternative to traditional models by adapting their engine speed to the energy demand. This results in reduced fuel consumption, noise, and pollutant emissions.

• Fischer Panda Generator Sets: Renowned for their reliability and compactness, these generator sets offer a high-performance solution for onboard power generation.
• Frequency Converters: Control the generator set's engine speed, adapting energy production to actual demand.
• Soundproofed Cooling Systems: Reduce generator set noise and vibrations, improving onboard comfort.
• NMEA 2000 Interfaces: Allow integration of the generator set with the rest of the boat's electronic system, facilitating monitoring and control.
