New concepts for powering electric vessels
In the marine industry, the future looks highly interesting, with major challenges to unravel. The energy mix on board is likely to be a fascinating mosaic. Our vessels have to be ready, and flexibility will be key.
Why permanent magnet machines outperform induction machines?
A study we made during summer 2021 quantified impressive permanent magnet (PM) machine efficiencies for vessels like LNG and LPG carriers that often utilize slow-speed, direct-driven in-line shaft generators producing electrical power from two-stroke main engines.
Future tools are already here
The marine industry is looking for ways to comply with looming emission regulation deadlines and prepare for the future. Possible solutions include a host of alternative fuels, further electrification and greater efficiency of current solutions.
