Ok the fact that this tech is being used to shovel piles of new cars around is not that solarpunk, but the technology itself certainly is.

I like it, but honestly I’m skeptical. I mean we’re talking a couple of wings moving metric tons! I’m guessing the ship starts of on engines and once it reaches the speed, the sails take over? I mean competition sails push really light crafts…not heavy ass bricks like this.
Nah it isn’t the main propulsion, it is opportunistic and reduces fuel costs, the efficiency gains add up very quickly however.
