Huge batteries

Cool air wafts onto your face. It lowers the temperature of huge batteries lined up in the engine room of a hybrid ro-ro vessel, M/sĀ Finneco II. The batteries are in white metal cabinets standing in long rows like library shelves with gangways running between them. A cold, bright light illuminates the whole space. The room is quiet, almost silent. The sight is reminiscent of a data centre except that now we are in the engine room of Finneco II, a Finnish cargo ship.
