Based on type, the hybrid segment of the electric ships market is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period as compared to the fully electric segment. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the adoption of hybrid propulsion systems in cargo ships, defense ships, and passenger cruise ships due to the cost benefits of using a hybrid propulsion system. Additionally, the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) new ruling on acceptable sulfur emissions on ships has made cargo ship operators retrofit some of their existing fleet with hybrid propulsion to adhere to the new decision.

Based on ship type, the commercial segment of the electric ships market is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period as compared to the defense segment. The growth of this segment can be attributed to a large number of ships available for retrofit, especially in the cargo segment. The IMO 2020 ruling affects the commercial shipping industry the most, and as such, a significant portion of the retrofit market is expected to come from the retrofitting of cargo vessels such as container vessels, gas tankers, general cargo ships, among others with electric propulsion systems.

Based on range, the
