For instance, ABS report shows higher capacity batteries would allow for more efficient hybrid vessels and could potentially make all-electric vessels more viable. Examples of new promising alternatives include metal-air, REDOX flow, ammonia, and solid-state batteries.
Battery power is an increasingly popular option for the transportation sector, with electric cars already commonly seen on the roads. Taking to the sea, the marine industry has begun incorporating batteries onboard ships in a bid to limit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and advance the energy transition.
For battery-powered ships to minimize emissions, operators will need to ensure that the electricity supplied from the grid comes from renewable sources. Ship managers will need to assess full supply chain accountability in order to achieve completely greener operations.
A new 60m-long tanker, named the e5, is the first of its kind to be powered solely by lithium-ion batteries. This all-electric vessel will launch in Tokyo Bay next year. We ask about the benefits of battery power over other green energy sources, as well as the factors leading to the growth of the market this year.
Batteries are not yet suitable for providing the required power for long voyages, and are mostly found onboard ferries, tugs and other small or specialized vessels. LEAD batteries have been the traditional batteries used to provide back-up power to ships, and are subject to longstanding rules for installation and maintenance.
For ship owners, risk analyses are crucial for onboard installation, ventilation, hazardous areas, fluid leakage and more. The first question ship owners and operators face when considering batteries is cost. As of 2016, the price of battery power was $227 USD per kilowatt-hour.
Ship designers and construction crews must do the utmost possible to reduce risk and prove to flag authorities that battery-powered ships are safe to dock. During operations, ships need to recharge their batteries by connecting to the electrical grid at port.

A hybrid vehicle can achieve propulsion using a fuelled power source for e.g. a diesel engine or through a stored energy source, which is a battery bank and electric motor. Hybrid propulsion systems can be differentiated between configurations, where the diesel engines and the E-motors work in parallel on the propeller. The main applications of ...
Columbia Engineering material scientists have been focused on developing new kinds of batteries to transform how we store renewable energy. In a new study recently published by Nature Communications, the team used K-Na/S batteries that combine inexpensive, readily-found elements — potassium (K) and sodium (Na), together with sulfur (S) — to ...
