    It will be diesel-electric, so the main propeller and the bow thrusters will be electrically driven - at the moment I assume that the generators will produce about 25 MW each, but that is just an assumption, neither have I calculated what the engines would be really capable of, nor what the ship actually would need...

    There will probably be two smaller generators and two emergency/startup generators, which produce the energy and air pressure necessary to start the big engines

    The main propeller and engine will probably probably end up in a Pod.
