Powerships, Power Barges, Floating Wind Farms Patrick Stakem

The book is about an energy technology solution called Powerships, and some of the alternate solutions they provide. There is a healthy growing industry in this field, with established and trusted suppliers. More than 60 such ships have been deployed around the world so far. They don't provide a long term solution, but are ideal in the short term, to assist in addressing peak loads, and to support infrastructure while ground-based plants are built. In natural disasters, they can support the grid while extensive repairs are made.
