The shipping industry has come a long way fighting and doing big efforts for
reducing costs of propulsion without increasing marine pollution, ofcourse The
conventional propulsion system of the ship is efficient but requires high
operating costs and increases the marine pollution.
problematic

so what is the solution for a better compromise between a clean environment and an efficient
propulsion?

Objectif

As an answer, electrical propulsion system is one of the best tried out


alternative in today’s time.

The electric propulsion system consists of a prime mover which may be of two
types:

 Diesel driven
 Turbine or steam driven
AD

Both the systems produce less pollution as compared to conventional marine


propulsion system, which involves burning of heavy oil.

BUT today i’m going to talk about the first type which is diesel electric
propulsion
