tang1International Battery has joined forces with Electric Marine Propulsion to create a yacht that not only runs on electric batteries, but charges them using wind energy -- even when the sails are down. The 60-foot catamaran, dubbed the Tang, is an impressive feat of engineering. Not only is it emission-free, made from carbon fiber and a 'hybrid', but the yahct boasts twin E motion 18-kilowatt permanent-magnet motors powered by a 144-volt lithium ion battery pack.1
