I like the idea of battery powered ships for short haul ferries. I'm expecting nuclear-powered civilian ships like the Savannah, Otto Hahn, Mutsu, and all the Russian icebreakers to be the better solution for longer haul cargo, tanker, and cruise ships.
The trouble with nuclear ships is to keep the radioactive materials safe from everyone who’d love to turn it into at least a dirty bomb.
