en.Wedoany.com Reported - Clean energy company MarineSolar Energy Solutions has conducted a real-ship pilot test of its NanoDeck photovoltaic (PV) system aboard the RTM Cook, a cargo vessel owned by Rio Tinto. This is part of a commercial evaluation of the technology in real marine environments in Central Africa.

The trial aims to test MarineSolar's proprietary energy-saving photovoltaic technology. The NanoDeck system, designed for offshore and port vessels, is a robust and retrofittable renewable energy solution intended to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Testing was conducted under the most challenging real marine conditions to verify its actual performance.

Over several months of sea voyages, the system demonstrated excellent durability, withstanding strong winds and heavy waves while continuously operating and transmitting data. Preliminary results indicate the technology's potential to reduce fuel consumption, offering vessel operators dual value in carbon emission reduction and access to renewable energy.

Nigel Marc Roberts, CEO of MarineSolar Energy Solutions, stated that testing the technology on an operational cargo ship is invaluable for evaluating the system in real-world conditions. The collected data will guide the next phase of technology development.

The NanoDeck system is designed to provide supplementary power to vessels via solar energy. The company is exploring how to integrate this technology with other emerging marine energy solutions, including alternative propulsion technologies and low-emission fuels.

This trial was conducted by Rio Tinto on a non-commercial basis to support the evaluation of the technology. Any future applications will require further assessment.
