At first the RAC rating was usually representative of the car's actual (brake) horsepower, but as engine design and technology progressed in the 1920s and 1930s these two figures began to diverge, with engines making much more power than their RAC ratings suggested: by 1924 the 747 cc (45.6 cu in) engine of the Austin Seven (named for its 7 hp ...

A 3-year leasing may cost €90 million. [9] The fleet of 16 vessels are scheduled to expand to 23 vessels by 2023, of which seven can handle the largest turbines. [8] [1] The fast growth of turbine size challenges even the largest vessels. [10] In China, lack of suitable vessels are slowing the construction of offshore wind farms. [11]
