In this webinar with Q&As, Christian and Peter discuss how Techsol Marine in Canada and Yaskawa Environmental Energy / The Switch have jointly succeeded in providing a future-ready solution for the North American shipping industry.
As we come to the end of this calendar year, it is a good time to look back on our achievements and the major happenings of 2020.
Today, we are on a mission to help transform the marine industry to cut fuel costs and emissions by creating energy sustainably, containing energy effectively and consuming energy responsibly. Here are five technologies that our system integrator and OEM partners can use to do so.
What kind of shipowner are you? Are you the type to simply go around switching off the air conditioning and laying off employees to keep costs in line? Or are you determined to lower costs through investments in the best technology?
Low CapEx/OpEx, high reliability and compactness. These are the three most important criteria our clients think of when considering adding electric machines to a new or upgraded vessel. But is it possible? Yes, with increasingly popular permanent magnet technology.
Hege Økland, CEO of NCE Maritime CleanTech, urges for more concrete actions to make the green shift forward.
On January 1, the IMO 2020 rule went into effect, reducing the amount of sulfur allowed in marine fuels to 0.5%. With over 170 countries on board, the benefits should add up quickly. But if you’re not compliant already, what’s the best way to adapt?
For us, the marine business is more conservative and complex than the wind industry where we started. Convincing the historically conventional stakeholders of the superiority of PM technology is challenging. Yet still, the progress made is great.
The Switch and LUT have signed a Key Account agreement to strengthen cooperation and formalize the partnership the two organizations have enjoyed for nearly two decades.
Today, The Switch has been awarded with The Internationalization Award by Tarja Halonen, President of Finland.
The company’s growth has been based on the growing renewable energy markets globally and successful technology. For 2011, the company has received orders worth tens of millions of Euros.
We just have to ride the wave with our partners through market cycles and challenges in developing cutting-edge drive solutions.
Today, two market conditions mark the ROPAX industry as ready for environmentally friendly innovations, such as permanent magnet machines. First, fuel prices have gone up.
