Cost of Solar Passenger Ship

is about 900.000.- € – with its capacity – the economic break even should be reached within 10 years – given the extra benefit of clean air and much less destructive forces to the environment (reed beds etc.) this is a definite winner!

This is a definite winner, though I’m betting that the construction costs are very high. Perhaps they can also reduce energy use further by harvesting wind energy… with a sail!

Anything that would take away from gasoline and oil products is ok. Hope that in the future, they also may consider an engine from the air car.

Thanks Francisco
