Panamax ship is 5000 teu (twenty foot shipping container equivalent) I think you get about 4 MWh per TEU ( based on my 12V 100Ah battery) so about 20 GWh | ||

At 170Wh per kg (and ignoring the weight of the containers and any safety considerations), 20GWh of lithium battery would weigh 120,000 tons. This is a lot more than a typical Panamax DWT of 60,000 tons, which also needs to include the ship's fuel, provisions, crew, etc. | ||
