Abstract

ABSTRACT: In order to reduce the emission of pollutants from ships, the need to introduce eco-friendly ships is gradually increasing. Recently built ships are being applied with eco-friendly ship propulsion systems that can replace the existing propulsion systems. The number of ships to which an electric propulsion system, which is a kind of eco-friendly ship propulsion system, is applied is increasing. In addition, an electric propulsion system is attracting attention as a propulsion system suitable for autonomously operated ships to which the digital twin system is applied. Electric propulsion ships have many differences from ships to which the existing propulsion system is applied in terms of equipment and systems mounted thereon. Overseas, job training is being conducted for seamen who onboard electric powered ships for the safe operation of ships, but there is no systematic training course for electric powered ships in Korea. In this paper, we analyze in detail the current educational cases related to electric powered ships in various countries, and propose a curriculum and contents for the mandatory dutied of electric powered ships that can be applied in Korea based on the standard education curriculum of the International Maritime Organization.
