New energy saving system with the shaft generator motor, which can transfer the electric power between the main shaft and the electric power distribution system, was developed. The first one was installed on a tanker'Yamatogawa' and from the sea trials and the navigation for five months its high performance was confirmed. This system consists of an AC generator motor, a static frequency converter, an electric power distribution system, etc. While the conventional shaft generator system is such that the electric power is only supplied from the shaft generator to the electric power distribution system, in addition to this function, new one provides the capability that the electric power is supplied from the electric power distribution system to the main shaft through the shaft generator motor. This brings reduction in the required main engine output. That is, this system is functioned as a generator when the electric power consumption increases, and functioned as an electric motor when the electric power consumption decreases and there arise a surplus electric power. This system is applicable to various plants for energy saving purpose. In its operation with an exhaust gas turbo generator among others, its advantages can be particularly enjoyed. In this paper, the outline of this system, the results of the trial operation and the operating conditions of the actual navigation are introduced.
