If deployed with hybrid sails [1] this could be even more competitive to Bunker fuel for bulk/container carriers and even RoRo car carriers.

IMHO a hybrid approach would achieve similar to superior perfomance to the current state viz a viz cost/perfomance and enviromental impact.

Additionally as has been deployed for some longhaul trucks battery swaps can also cut down on the time to redeploy after offloading the cargo.
