Nowadays, sustainable navigation is becoming a trending topic not only for merchant
ships but also for pleasure vessels such as motoryachts. Therefore, the adoption of a hybrid-electric
propulsion system and the installation of on-board storage devices could increase the greenness
of a megayacht. This paper analyses the performance of three commercial propulsive solutions,
using a dynamic operative profile and considering the influences of the smart berthing infrastructures.
Results compare the yearly fuel consumptions of the analysed configurations for a reference
megayacht.
