Solar and ocean thermal energy operated hi-tech ship having passenger safety and desalination facilities

Abstract

India is having an enormous renewable energy base. But unlike other modes of transport non-conventional energy has not yet stepped into marine navigation. Apart from this the extensive use of petrol and other fossil fuels in ship has led to both water pollution and extinction of non-renewable energy sources. The purpose of this project is to design an electronic ship driven by renewable solar and ocean thermal energy, which will not only solve the above mentioned problems but will also provide effective passenger safety facilities. Desalination of marine water and use of motor controlled mirrors are points of main attraction. So this project is expected to serve humanity socio-economically.
