4.1.1. Solar/battery powered ships Solar/battery power system is the typical power system configuration for medium and small-scale solar-powered ships. The “Sun 21” (Fig. 9 a) was the world's first solar-powered ship to cross the Atlantic in 2006, with 65 m 2 PV panels between the hull to supply the ship power system .
In terms of power system, we design to carry solar PV modules and fuel cell modules for ships. During the ship's voyage, the electricity generated by the PV module is input into the ship's power grid, and together with the diesel generator to supply the ship.
The application of solar PV technology on ships has matured, and the relevant operating strategies and efficiency improvement methods are the hot topics now. This is one of the most accessible renewable energy sources on ships, and it will also be an important method to improve the energy structure of ships.
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.
Recent advances in solar cell and photovoltaic (PV) module technologies have led to solar power becoming a cost effective fuel reduction option on pleasure boats, ferries and tourist vessels. However on large ships the amount of fuel saved through the use of solar power alone is relatively small.
