Practical Considerations for Hybrid Electrical Power Systems Onboard Ships

Hybrid Electric Power Systems has emerged as a key decarbonization technology for meeting the International Maritime Organization’s emissions reduction targets. Since these systems are complex and vary based on the ship’s configuration and the type of technologies chosen, it is important to consider the following prior to integration onboard ABS report

Power propulsion architecture
Using renewable energy sources
Using energy storage systems
Integration of Battery Management System (BMS), Power Management System (PMS), and Energy Management System (EMS)
Application of Computer-based Modeling and Simulation
Impact of Port Infrastructure
Regulatory Compliance
