JOOOL wins the Groupe Sud Ouest Award at the Trophées Innovation Nautisme
Grand Pavois de La Rochelle, September 2026
JOOOL has been awarded the Prix Groupe Sud Ouest at the Trophées Innovation Nautisme, held during the Grand Pavois de La Rochelle.
The One box : very energy function on board
The award recognises the OneBox, JOOOL’s core product: a single certified enclosure that centralises every energy function on board into one intelligent system. Storage, conversion, management, distribution and electric propulsion are coordinated automatically : eliminating the need for multiple separate units and reducing fuel consumption by up to 50%. At anchor, the generator stays off. Under sail, kinetic energy is recovered through hydrogeneration. In harbour, manoeuvring runs on stored power.
Designed from the outset for serial assembly on shipyard production lines, the OneBox is already deployed across more than 8 shipyards and brands worldwide, including Fountaine Pajot, Groupe Beneteau, Lagoon, Jeanneau, Excess, Dufour, Leopard Catamaran, RM Yachts and Day One Catamarans.
The energy transition is already underway
Alternatives Energies, the company behind JOOOL, has been developing and deploying electrification solutions for the maritime sector for over 28 years, accumulating more than one million hours of operational data at sea. The OneBox is the direct product of this experience: a single certified enclosure that brings together everything learned on the water into one standardised, reliable and plug & play system. By bringing together Groupe Beneteau and Groupe Fountaine Pajot within Elektra Marine, JOOOL can now deploy this solution at scale : optimising renewable energy sources on board, reducing fuel consumption, and enabling silent, cleaner navigation at every stage of a voyage. The foundation was already there. The conditions to scale it are now in place.
A recognition from Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Atlantic Cluster and Groupe Sud Ouest
We would like to thank the jury, Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Atlantic Cluster and Groupe Presse et Médias du Sud-Ouest for organising the Trophées Innovation Nautisme and for this distinction. This recognition belongs to everyone who contributes, day after day, to making marine electrification a reality.
