The aim of this dissertation was to analyze the necessity of applying
alternative forms of energy supply to ships and more specific the use of solar panels
for the utilization of solar energy. The main reason for the implementation and use of
more environmentally-friendly forms of energy is the contribution of maritime
transport to air pollution. The use of solar panels and photovoltaic systems is
widespread in terrestrial installations, but we need to look at the conditions and
constraints for maritime installation purposes. The type of wiring and photovoltaic
technology which is chosen varies in each case as it depends on different parameters,
such as the available surface to be installed on the ship and the latitude that the ship
will be moving. Finally, we have to analyze how profitable this investment will be, as
apart from reducing air pollutants, the reduction in fuel consumption compared to the
cost of installation and maintenance of the photovoltaic system should be noted.
