Van Oord’s newbuild offshore wind installation vessel Boreas will benefit from space and weight savings enabled by ABB’s equipment allowing the vessel to transport heavier loads
ABB MarineCare to secure safe and sustainable operations of PONANT’s polar exploration cruise vessel Le Commandant Charcot. Service package includes continuous remote diagnostics, maintenance services and spare parts provision.
Integrated ABB power and propulsion package win from Colombo Dockyard brings milestone Azipod® installation for advanced cable-laying and repair vessel that will support offshore wind farms.
ABB will deliver an integrated electric propulsion system and advanced vessel control technology for Crowley’s pioneering eWolf tug, built for sustainable and safe operations at the Port of San Diego.
With the recent rise in the number of hybrid and fully electric vessels, battery power is establishing itself as a real force for change towards more sustainable and energy efficient operations. However, the full benefits of this technology can only be achieved with an advanced power management system on board.
With the increasingly stringent environmental regulations, shipowners and operators are facing the pressures of switching to more energy-efficient operations. With optimization-based power management control strategies, forward-thinking owners can unlock efficiencies that not only help achieve more sustainable operation, but also reduce operational costs.
ABB has optimized the safety and environmental credentials of Louis Dreyfus Armateurs' wind farm Service Operation Vessel (SOV) by installing Onboard DC Grid power distribution to enable the cost-efficient integration of batteries.
With ABB''s power, control, distribution and automation solutions, specialized cable layer NKT Victoria achieves up to 60 percent fuel saving when compared with cable-layers in its class operating in the market.
ABB’s containerized energy storage solution is acomplete, self-contained battery solution for a large-scalemarine energy storage. The batteries and allcontrol, interface, and auxiliary equipment are deliveredin a single shipping container for simpleinstallation on board any vessel. The standard delivery includes
Peak ShavingLevel power seen by engines and offset need to start new engines. Benefits include reduced fuel consumption and engine maintenance.Enhanced dynamic performanceInstant power in support of running engines. Benefits include reduced fuel consumption and enabler for "slower" sources like LNG and fuel cells.Spinning reserveBackup power to running generators. Benefits include improved safety and reduced fuel consumption and engine maintenance.
ABB has responded to rapidly rising demand for low and zero emissions from ships by developing Containerized ESS – a complete, plug-in solution to install sustainable marine energy storage at scale, housed in a 20ft high-cube ISO container.
Facing a growing demand for higher power plant efficiency, reduced fuel consumption and lower emission levels, the marine industry is increasingly applying concepts based on the use of hybrid power plants with energy storage systems.
With the availability of high-power and energy-dense batteries, such systems are now being applied as additional and/or alternative power source to diesel generator sets for on board electrical power plants. Load sharing has to be controlled, especially when the battery system is operating in parallel with other power sources.
Hybrid systems will reduce the energy consumption. When an offshore vessel is operating on dynamic positioning, using batteries for spinning reserve and peak shaving the fuel saving potential is significant. Ships may also use batteries for zero emission port call and port stay and thereby reduce the local emissions. Additional benefits are related to the reduction in the machinery maintenance cost and in lower noise and vibrations.
Ferries operating on short-distance routes, such as river and fjord crossing ferries, can operate fully battery driven with fast charging at both ends or only at one end, depending on the distance of the crossing. A hybrid version, where the vast majority of the energy is delivered by the batteries supported with onboard diesel or gas generators can also be considered.
