Short about the topic:

The webinar will cover where potential lies for battery application on large ocean-going vessels and investigate where there is not. The webinar will also address some do’s and don’ts in connection to batteries and propulsion. The greatest benefits are discovered to lie in the benefits of integrating batteries into the electric grid on board why great emphasis is given to this subject.
