How do batteries disperse/degrade or get recovered at sea when the inevitable cargo loss or hull loss occurs?
Possibly the answer to both of those is systemic - but it is at least that.
- geenew 4y agoI don't think at-sea refuelling is common for commercial ships, but if needed presumably a electric equivalent of an oiler could be made, with a electric cable instead of a hose used to transfer power from one ship to the other. For the other issue... probably no perfect solution.
