Mechanical ship propulsion systems which use thermo-motors to directly drive propellers have held a monopoly position in marine power plants. However, there are problems associated with these systems, such as high environment pollution, noise, low flexibility, and small speed range. Directed at different waterways and ship forms, and combined with integrated conditions and technical restrictions of new energy, this article provides plans to resolve these problems by promoting a new form of energy. A feasibility analysis is carried out according to the costs, environmental protection performance, infrastructure arrangement, and attachment related. Based on the technical characteristics of urban electric traction locomotives and electrified railway systems, this paper proposes a marine electric propulsion system which uses a catenaries system and electric traction mode. The study achieves its attended mode in flexible support conditions, resolves some technical problems with the system, and provides an overall evaluation.
