Shipboard Solar Power for Onboard Energy Needs in Mauritius

Beneficiary country: Mauritius

The pilot project aims to demonstrate the practical application of shipboard solar power generation to offset onboard auxiliary and/or hotel loads. By generating operational data, the initiative will provide insights into the technology’s performance and its potential to support vessel energy needs. 

The pilot will also evaluate the technology’s scalability, cost-effectiveness, and return on investment. Lessons learned will inform the potential for wider adoption and future large-scale deployment across vessel fleets.
