A research paper based on the trials on Blue Star Delos has been published by the Journal of Marine Engineering & Technology.
Abstract
In October 2014 the high speed car and passenger ferry Blue Star Delos was fitted with a marine solar power system. This was done as part of a project to study the use of renewable energy on large ships. In May 2015 while the ship operated in the Aegean Sea, the performance of system was checked and a range of data collected. This paper is focused on the analysis of these data and the evaluation of two days of system trials.
