Emissions reduction continues to be high on the agenda for the marine industry, it is responsible for about 2.5 percent of global greenhouse emissions1 and is under great pressure to reduce its environmental impact. With pressure comes the opportunity to incentivize innovation, developments and implementation of energy efficient measures, both design and operational. Naval propulsion systems are no different from other industries, and the industry is exploring ways to optimise propulsion and electrical power generation systems architecture for better performance and efficiency. Electric technology plays a leading role.&nbsp; The paper will: <ul> <li>Provide a brief overview about the hybrid propulsion concept, with key electrical, mechanical qualities and issues</li> <li>Describe different designs configurations and performances of hybrid propulsion systems from demonstrated and operational systems in the commercial and naval world</li> <li>Cover the lessons learnt in technologies and controls used on such systems</li> <li>Examine future architectures including energy storage and explore the benefits and the flexibility these can bring to the hybrid propulsion sphere.<br> &nbsp;</li> </ul> 000007632 540__ $$aThis paper reflects the views of the authors and does not necessarily represent the views of the authors&rsquo; affiliated organisations or the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology.&nbsp; 000007632 7001_ $$aBenatmane, M$$uGE Energy Power Conversion UK Ltd, Rugby, UK © GE 000007632 7001_ $$aSalter, B$$uGE Energy Power Conversion UK Ltd, Rugby, UK © GE 000007632 773__ $$tConference Proceedings of INEC 000007632 773__ $$jINEC 2018 000007632 789__ $$whttps://zenodo.org/record/2530670$$2URL$$eIsIdenticalTo 000007632 8564_ $$90b59710f-5923-49fa-86f1-c39ac6c80467$$s2397119$$uhttps://library.imarest.org/record/7632/files/INEC%202018%20Paper%20087%20Benatmane%20FINAL.pdf
