Development of hybrid power generating system for Electrical Power Supply Ship

Awarded: NOK 4.2 mill.

Project Number:

210674

Project Period:

2011 - 2013

Location:

The planned innovation is to design and build an Electrical Power Supply Ship (EPS-Ship). By positioning the EPS Ship alongside larger ships docked at port, the electrical power supply ship shall be able to deliver sufficient electricity to replace the sh ips own electricity production -cold ironing.The most important part of an EPS-Ship is the onboard power plant which is to be developed through this project. The principle idea is to develop a new generation of ship machinery that has significantly lower specific fuel consumption and lower emission of harmful substances and greenhouse gasses than traditional machinery. In order to achieve this we aim for a hybrid machinery plant, i.e. that it consists of several types of power generating components and en ergy storages such as fuel cells, batteries, gas engines, steam turbines, boilers and heat recovery systems that can operate alone or in various combinations. Objectives: WP 1: Project administration WP 2: System Specification and Procedures Selection o f suited components Simulations of total system Scaling of electricity generating components Transmission of electricity to customer ship Positioning of EPS Ship for electricity transmission Starting and safety gases WP 3: Heat energy to electricity Con cept studies Evaluation of new and emerging technologies Simulation of total system Optimization and scaling studies Operational flexibility studies/dynamic simulations WP 4: System control Control and balancing of power station and power supply systems Control of hybrid system towards a operational profile Energy storing control strategies Modeling of systems Simulation of system WP 5: Evaluating measures to reduce air emissions in large port cities:An economic literature review Literature study Colle ct available data Analysis
