Europe often takes the spotlight for advancements in maritime industry electrification. Countries like Norway and Finland are already operating over a hundred electric vessels, driving the global shift toward sustainable shipping. Japan, on the other hand, has been comparatively quiet – with just around 10 electric vessels currently in operation. But behind the scenes, Japan…
The cooling system for a vessel’s electrical machines and drives is of paramount importance. Inadequately handled thermal stresses can cause an electrical system to age prematurely or even fail. A successful cooling system design must completely address all potential issues. Air-cooled systems are the cheapest and easiest to maintain. However, liquid-cooled systems come with so many…
When we talk about building more resilient ships, the conversation usually revolves around fuel flexibility, smart energy management and robust control systems. But another layer of resilience at the very core of onboard power conversion often gets overlooked — effective thermal design. Modern vessels — whether hybrid, fully electric or simply optimized for greater efficiency…
