The increasing fuel costs lead to the use of slow speed two stroke diesels. For even higher efficiency the speeds have to be reduced to very low propeller speeds. Absolutely safe operation gears are available. A geared propulsion system gives also lower initial costs. In addition, a new constant speed drive for directly main engine-driven generators was designed which lead to low-cost electrical energy.
