The ESTS 2017 will bring together commercial and military ship end-users, shipbuilders, machinery and equipment manufacturers, research institutes, universities and others organizations around the world to present their views, opinions, experiences and their studies, research, designs and future advances regarding electric ship technologies. The technical program for ESTS 2017 includes two keynote addresses from distinguished leaders in the electric ship community, eight technical tracks with more than 115 technical papers, panel sessions, and poster presentations. In addition, both full-day and half-day technical tutorials covering a range of topics will be offered on June 14. These technical tutorials are included with the conference registration fee at no additional charge.
