Somebody is trying to sell LNG tankers to rich idiots. We're not switching to LNG, that was the 1980s through the 2000s. Solar, wind, and batteries are coming online. So LNG ships are actually starting to be replaced by battery ships.
If LNG was still a good ship to be purchasing, they wouldn't be selling them off.
All due respect, wtf is a battery ship
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_ship
I found that page too but I don't think that is what OP was talking about
Of course it is, very effective for forcefully replacing LNG tankers!
Haha well that's one way to do it
It's a ship that carries electricity instead of gas. When it docks it hooks directly to the grid instead of a gas power plant.
Does the word "battery" or the word "ship" confuse you?
Wow you got me
Battery runs the ship, running ship charges the battery.
Profit?
Why use battery when nuclear reactors are significantly cheaper per MWh?
Are you able to show me some of these battery ships replacing LNG ships?
Have never seen a battery ship before? How do they unload? How fast?
yeah uh.. im also kind of unsure what OP meant here. there is no direct battery analogue to an LNG tanker because there's nothing to tank. ships that run partially or entirely on batteries are absolutely a thing, but they're not doing it in order to move the energy around.
...maybe they like charge up at some lush port with a cheap grid surplus, sail across the atlantic to like, i don't know, maybe texas during a polar vortex, supplement that grid for a couple of days, return + repeat for a tidy profit?..
...seems tricky to get the timing right; offshore data centers might be a better deal...
