On September 15th, it was reported that Mian Photovoltaics and Shanghai Jiao Tong University have collaborated. The two sides have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) cooperation agreement for unmanned boat photovoltaic application projects. After full and friendly consultation, both parties have reached a consensus on the cooperation matters for unmanned boat photovoltaic application projects. Both parties will provide support and assistance to each other while investing in the project under the existing advantageous resource conditions. On the basis of innovative practice cooperation, further promote the development and application of unmanned boat projects.


Professor Yi Hong, doctoral supervisor of the School of Marine and Architectural Engineering of Shanghai Jiaotong University, said that "in order to serve the national strategic needs of the" the Belt and Road Initiative "and promote the development of green and intelligent marine equipment, Shanghai Jiaotong University has made fruitful achievements in scientific exploration and technological innovation in recent years, and has also won a number of national key projects such as the national key research and development program" All Sea Deep Unmanned Submersible (ARV) ", Jiaotong University aims to take off once again in the journey of serving the needs of the country


It is reported that Shanghai Jiao Tong University has conducted years of research on unmanned boats and has developed a green intelligent unmanned boat technology that focuses on high seakeeping ship types, energy utilization technology, complex background target recognition technology, intelligent path planning and collision avoidance technology, supporting the exploration of unmanned boats and unmanned ship technology in China.

As a well-known distributed photovoltaic solution service provider in Shanghai, Mian Photovoltaic's cooperation with Shanghai Jiao Tong University is also fulfilling the country's strategic development needs and supporting the smooth implementation of unmanned boat projects, "said Hua Jutuan, CTO of Mian Photovoltaic.

In this cooperation, Mian Photovoltaics utilizes the functional advantages of solar power generation to provide guiding power for the sails of unmanned boats, truly achieving the goals of green, environmental protection, and energy conservation. In addition, throughout the entire cooperation cycle of the project, Mian Photovoltaics will provide any technical consultation related to photovoltaic applications to Shanghai Jiao Tong University free of charge; Not only that, Mian Photovoltaics will also actively participate in project periodic discussion meetings; Willing to deliver unmanned boat models for application in the photovoltaic field at a cost close to cost before the commercial operation of the project; Afterwards, Mion Photovoltaics can promote the application of photovoltaics in the direction of intelligent green ship technology for the implementation of this project. This is not only a first attempt for the unmanned boat project, but also an innovative application for the entire photovoltaic field.


Green and intelligent are already important trends in the development of future marine equipment. I hope that this cooperation between the two parties can achieve innovative applications in the photovoltaic field, and I also hope that the unmanned boat project can be smoothly carried out and provide a breakthrough success for the development of China's offshore equipment.
