Algae have the potential to produce large volumes of fuel per unit area of production on marginal lands using saline water unsuitable for food crops. Thus, algal biofuels could expand transportation energy supplies, without significantly displacing land and water resources that would otherwise have been used for food production.

Floating NPPs can provide a reliable power supply not only to remote settlements, for example, in the Far North and Far East regions, but also to large industrial facilities such as oil platforms. The 21,500 tonne hull was launched in 2010, although construction work was frozen in mid-2011 amid bankruptcy proceedings against the shipyard.
