The Sunpower 44 is a solar electric luxury yacht featuring uncompromising design and leading-edge technology. Built by Sunpower Yachts Australia, the power cat uses only marine-grade IS International Standard batteries and integrated system components in its propulsion systems. Safety is a key focus with the development of a hybrid drive system through the design and engineered coding process. Over the years, Sunpower Yachts Australia has developed the Sunpower Propulsion System Drive Chain following safety concepts designed by the companies that have spent years on IS procedures.
