“…An interesting solution seems to be the use of wind energy through the use of a sail, which is compatible with the conventional propulsion [52,53]. An interesting solution may be the application of hybrid drive systems using electric motors [54], hydrogen fuel cells [55,56], Flettner rotors [57], the Magnus effect [58][59][60], hybrid energy sources [61] and others [62][63][64].…”

One of the requirements for ships equipped with dynamic positioning system is the ability to maintain a given position in various hydrometeorological conditions. At the same time, efforts at reducing electricity consumption are made in order to reduce operating costs and emissions of exhaust gases, such as sulfur oxides and greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). For this purpose, the ship designer at the design stage must predict both how much energy the ship will theoretically use during operation and how the expenditure can be reduced. The publication presents a comparison of energy consumption with two different approaches to ship positioning: the use of classic dynamic positioning utilizing a set of thrusters and by using a set of anchors. In order to determine the energy consumption during positioning, the matrix method was used, on the basis of which the analysis of the ability to hold the position of the ship (capability plot) was performed, in accordance with the recommendations of the classification society DNV GL. Thanks to this analysis, it was possible to find such a distribution of thrust vectors on propulsors that the ship would not lose its set position under the hydrometeorological conditions specified in the analysis. As a result of comparing the two positioning systems, it turned out that using anchor-based positioning uses 24% less energy than positioning based on a set of thrusters, which translates into 24% less CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.

Utilization of renewable energy for the reduction of fuel consumption and green house gas (GHG) emissions in the shipping industry has been increased rapidly in the recent years. Wind energy is a clean renewable energy with no pollution which is abundantly available at sea. This paper proposes two different possible configurations of connecting wind power energy into the ship’s main grid bus system . Wind electrical energy output has been connected to ship’s main ac bus system in one configuration and it is connected to ship’s main dc bus system. Even though Wind assisted ship propulsion (WASP) had been started already in the last decades in the form of wing sails, kites, Flettener rotor etc which could assist auxiliary propulsion of the ships, the application of wind power generator on the ship is not often applied. Therefore this paper has a relevant significance in applying wind electrical energy for the marine electrical power system needs. This paper also reveals the benefits and challenges in the area of onboard wind generation and opens future research possibilities in integrating wind energy into marine industry.
