Solar Supertankers Planned To Ship Water

Written on October 19, 2006

The company Solar Sailor is investing tens of millions of dollars into developing electric-hybrid “Aquatankers” to be powered by solar wings. The plan is deemed to be more cost effective than building new dams, desalination plants or pipelines.
