Zusammenfassung:A hybrid electrical and mechanical ship propulsion and electric power system, includes a first mechanical power plant (58, 60) configured to drive a first propeller (61) via a first shaft (59). There is a second electrical power plant (22, 24, 26) configured to drive a second propeller (57) via a second shaft (55). The second electrical power plant includes HTS generators (25, 27) and a high temperature superconductor (HTS) motor (36) interconnected to the second shaft. There is a first electrical network to which the HTS motor is connected in order to energize the HTS motor to drive the second propeller via the second shaft.
