Abstract
A movable maritime vessel for generating, storing and transporting energy, the vessel comprising a hull, at least one sail configured to capture wind energy to move the vessel, and an energy generation system comprising a hydro generator, wherein the hydro generator is configured to generate energy from the movement of fluid, for example water, for example sea water, through the hydro generator.
Claims21
1-38. (canceled)
A movable maritime vessel comprising:
- a hull;
- at least one sail configured to capture wind energy to move the vessel;
- and
- an energy generation system comprising a hydro generator, wherein the hydro generator is configured to generate energy from a movement of a fluid through the hydro generator.
