6 FAQs about [Solar power generation on ships]

Can solar energy be used as a power source in a ship?

New energy sources, including solar energy, wind energy and fuel cells have already been introduced into ship power system. Solar energy can now be used as the main power source to propel small-scale ships, and as an auxiliary power source in large-scale ships to supply lighting, communication devices and navigation system.

What is a solar ship?

Solar ships, namely ships that use solar photovoltaic (PV) technology, are designed with the basic technical scheme that integrates the solar PV system into the ship power system (SPS) and utilises this zero-pollution, zero-emission PV power as much as possible.

How to control solar energy ship PV generation system?

The control of solar energy ship PV generation system. The PV generation system can operate in stand-alone mode to supply the lighting system through the ship main grid, if the sunlight is adequate. Then, switches SW b and SW c should be off, while the switch SW a is on.

Can solar photovoltaic systems be used in ship power systems?

For the large-scale ocean-going ship platform, the critical issue of applying solar photovoltaic (PV) system is integrating PV equipment into the ship power system (SPS) without changing its original structure.

What is a ship solar PV system?

At present, the ship solar PV system is mainly divided into off-grid and grid-connected two types. The off-grid PV system is independent of the ship's power grid and relies on batteries to ensure a continuous supply of power.

Can solar power power a ship's propulsion system?

Similar to wind energy, the weather conditions at the sea are unpredictable and research has yet to overcome the problem of stabilizing the output power of the ship’s propulsion system powered by solar. The efficiency of solar panels may be affected by the ambient temperature and the sun’s irradiation due to their high level of sensitivity .
