According to EMP their pioneering solar power ship system the Aquarius MRE is an advanced integrated system of rigid sails marine-grade solar panels energy storage modules and marine computers that will enable ships to tap into renewable energy by harnessing the power provided by the wind and sun. An 11m solar electric version has been produced with a 16kw motor and a top speed of 8-9 knots featured in Wooden Boat magazine number 185.

The worlds first 10-mast cruise liner Ecoships solar panel-covered sails and top-deck solar farm will continue to generate more than 740 kW of power in the event of low wind conditions. The engine requires 20 kW to achieve a mean speed of 8 knots which is equal to 15 Kph or 9Mph and it is possible for the ship to go twice as fast. This wind-assisted propulsion WAP system also include marine solar power and is designed so that the practical limitations of using rigid sails and solar panels on ships are overcomeA ship fitted with Aquarius MRE such as a passenger ferry cruise ship bulk carrier survey vessel or tanker will be able to tap into the limitless power of the wind and sun.
