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.
With an estimated 100,000 ships currently active and generating nearly 940 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually, solar technologies represent a promising step toward meeting global climate objectives while enhancing operational resilience within the shipping sector.
While solar energy alone may not fully power large ocean-going vessels, it can significantly reduce fuel consumption by supplying electricity for onboard systems and hybrid propulsion. Solar Technology in Shipping: Photovoltaic Panels on Decks: Ships with large, flat decks can be fitted with photovoltaic (PV) panels to generate electricity.
Solar Technology in Shipping: Photovoltaic Panels on Decks: Ships with large, flat decks can be fitted with photovoltaic (PV) panels to generate electricity. Solar energy can be used to power navigation systems, lighting, refrigeration, and even auxiliary propulsion.
