Fountaine Pajot develops the world’s first production cruising catamaran with 100% electric propulsion using hydrogen as an energy source.

In partnership with EODev, a specialist in industrial solutions using hydrogen, Fountaine Pajot has recently developed the world’s first production cruising catamaran with 100% electric propulsion which uses hydrogen as an energy source.
 
The Samana 59 Smart Electric X REXH2, named after the electro-hydrogen generator it carries, the REXH2, is now able to offer a 100% zero-emission navigation experience. Its system is based on 3 operating modes: 
 
1 – 100% electric mode with its on-board battery of 60 kw/h 
2 – Hybrid electro-hydrogen operation with fuel cell technology 
3 – Diesel Hybrid operation with it’s back-up generator 
 
We are proud to be partners of a brand that is working on its energy transition strategy with the goal of the decarbonisation of cruising.
