(Tick all that apply) Despite being a hard-to-abate industry, shipping is witnessing an acceleration in the adoption of clean technologies. Solar is emerging as a particularly attractive option for integration into shipboard power systems due to its abundance, reliability and zero-emission profile.
Shipping companies are also exploring innovative designs, such as solar sails and solar-assisted propulsion, which leverage both wind and solar energy for optimal efficiency.
The proposed system could generate 5.8 kWh of solar energy per day, enabling up to 7 h of daily operation. The ship utilized a photovoltaic generation system, a diesel engine, battery energy storage, a hybrid control system, and an inverter.
The widespread adoption of solar energy in maritime transport faces significant hurdles. Financially, the initial cost of solar installation and retrofitting existing fleets with solar technology presents a steep barrier, with expenses ranging into the millions depending on the size and type of vessel.
