Analysis on the Development of LNG Clean Energy Technology for Inland Ships in China

Abstract

Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is recognized as the most mature and feasible low-carbon clean alternative energy for ships in the world. Liquefied natural gas is widely favored by ship owners. This paper systematically summarizes the development status of promoting the application of LNG in ships at home and abroad. This paper deeply studies the key technologies of ship LNG power system, and focuses on the comparison of the characteristics of power technology at home and abroad. This paper comprehensively summarizes and analyzes the supporting system for the development of LNG powered ships in China. This paper explores the problems existing in the application of LNG in ships. The paper puts forward a power development path of LNG ships in China in the future. The proposed development path can provide strong support for China to achieve green shipping and dual carbon goals.
