report | microturbine technology installed on board lethantia Capstone components and putting them in a different enclosure,” Steiner confirmed. “We just make sure that airflow and cooling meet our requirements. With this system, we can offer a five-year warranty without any problem.” Steiner says MME will build these systems in series: as of writing eight more 30kW and two 65kW units have been ordered from Capstone to begin preparation for sale to the superyacht market from their workshop in Munich. As awareness picks up, Steiner hopes to hear from yards and project managers who might consider the units for diesel-electric and hybrid power use as well. The availability of a light, compact and low power microturbine for marine applications, one expects, should substantially widen the possibilities for hybrid power superyacht projects. Steiner is calmly planning his approach to the superyacht market. “We’ll write a letter to all of the technical directors of the shipyards, telling them the story of what we’ve done here on Lethantia,” Steiner explained. “For us, it’s easy to say, ‘We know it’s working. After one year of running the prototype aboard, we know this is the perfect system. We have the contract with Capstone. So you can go with MME technology, or you can stay behind.’ “The argument for most yacht owners is not going to be about fuel consumption, and they’re not the ones who are really going to be persuaded by an easier maintenance schedule. What they’ll be sold on is that they are silent and clean. They’ll be attracted by the newest, best technology, and be aware of the benefits of the clean exhaust, but it’s the comfort they’ll gain that closes the deal.
