2. SS Marine Electric - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Marine_Electric

   SS Marine Electric was a 605-foot bulk carrier that sank on 12 February 1983, about 30 miles off the coast of Virginia, in 130 feet of water.Thirty-one of the 34 crew members lost their life due to hypothermia; the three survivors endured 90 minutes drifting in the frigid waters of the Atlantic.

3. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

   Electric motors using battery packs have been used for propulsion on submarines and electric boats and have been proposed for energy-efficient propulsion. [1] A marine steam turbine manufactured by MAN Energy Solutions. Development in liquefied natural gas (LNG) fueled engines are gaining recognition for their low emissions and cost advantages.

4. Electric boat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_boat

   Campbell discusses the pollution that "traditional" batteries put into the water when a boat sinks, but Desmond says that electric boats are no more liable to sinking than other types and lists the leakage of fuel, engine oil and coolant additives as inevitable when an internal-combustion-engined boat sinks. Rutter points to the "very nasty ...

5. Elektroboot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elektroboot

   The result was the "Elektroboot" series, the Type XXI U-boat and a short range Type XXIII U-boat, finalized in January 1943 but with production only commencing in 1944–1945. When under water, the Type XXI managed to run at 17 knots (31 km/h; 20 mph), which was faster than a Type VII running full out on the surface and almost as fast as the ...

6. Air-independent propulsion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-independent_propulsion

   Most such systems generate electricity, which in turn drives an electric motor for propulsion or recharges the boat's batteries. The submarine's electrical system is also used for providing "hotel services"—ventilation, lighting, heating etc.—although this consumes a small amount of power compared to that required for propulsion.

7. Hydrogen-powered ship - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen-powered_ship

   A hydrogen ship is a hydrogen fueled ship, using an electric motor that gets its electricity from a fuel cell, or hydrogen fuel in an internal combustion engine. A hydrogen-powered ship is a vessel that uses hydrogen as its primary source of energy, typically through fuel cells or hydrogen combustion engines, to achieve propulsion. These ships ...
