A marine power generation system (100) comprises a storage battery (5) electrically connected to a power generator (4). When the load of a main engine (1) is in the high-load region and the engine room temperature is standard temperature, the power that can be generated by the power generator (4) from waste heat is greater than the continuous power (WC), which is continuously required onboard a vessel, and is smaller than the total power demand (WT), which is constituted from the continuous power (WC) to which a temporarily and additionally required power component (WA) has been added. When the power that can be generated by the power generator (4) from the waste heat exceeds the power demand onboard the vessel, the storage battery (5) is charged by the surplus power generated by the power generator (4), and when the power that can be generated by the power generator (4) from the waste heat falls below the power demand onboard the vessel, the storage battery (5) discharges and aids the driving of the power generator (4). |
