The journey of air-assisted propulsion has spanned many decades, and today’s eSAIL® has a rich history, tracing its roots back to the 1930s when the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which later became the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), ventured into this innovative concept. The very concept of a quality exploration vessel sparked […]
As decarbonization proceeds apace in the shipping industry, batteries/Energy Storage Systems (ESS) have great potential in reducing GHG emissions and improving energy efficiency. The main objective is to facilitate the fuel oil economy of the vessel’s electrical power plant by shifting the operation of the diesel generators to a point with better thermodynamic efficiency. ESS […]
