The World's First Hydrogen Superyacht Project 821 Launched in the Netherlands

May 27, 2024

The Netherlands has launched the world's first hydrogen superyacht, Project 821. Rumor has it that it was built on Bill Gates' request for $1 billion. It runs on hydro-treated vegetable oil for long distances, while hydrogen is used to generate electricity and for silent movement in 'environmentally sensitive' areas and harbors. Project 821 is also the largest motor yacht ever built in the country, measuring 119m in length and featuring 12 cabins, a gym, a cinema, a library, and a swimming pool.
