Solar-powered yacht has hidden solar panels

Solar power is in vogue these days, as it lends a certain air of respectability to the particular device or vehicle which is deemed to be green. Well, Novague Studio designers have come up with this conceptual environmentally friendly yacht which will run off a zero-emission electric engine. Whenever the engine depletes its batteries, you can always juice it up thanks to a couple of solar panels that are located on the yacht’s sides, where they can be unfurled when the situation calls for it. Spreading outwards in the manner of a bird’s wings to absorb much neede solar energy, all energy generated by the photovoltaic surface will be kept as a reserve in battery packs for future use. Why not throw in an old school sail as well to harness the power of the wind at the same time?
