Scientists are exploring the potential of installing solar panels on cruise ship cabins to help cut emissions and boost energy efficiency. A team from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) ran simulations to see just how much power these balcony-mounted photovoltaic (PV) panels could generate. The. . As cruise ships target ways to improve energy efficiency and go green, a team of engineers has introduced a new system that may bring vessels closer to their goals: solar energy. That might not sound like much, but it's a significant chunk when you consider. .
