Geografi:

We have identified needs for off-grid power supplies for several marine applications, and we will in this pre-project work out a concept for an autonomous power supply to be used for these applications. Examples of applications are 1) signal posts along t he coast, 2) pumps for small boats, 3) signal boosting along under-water cables 4) sensors with emitting devises. Our target product is a reliable, cost-efficient and scalable power supply with long life-time for use in demanding environments such as coa stal, deep-water, "bøyer" and oil- and gas rigs. In one embodiment, we foresee a devise where salt water is used as electrolyte in a primary cell. We will also explore closed systems and secondary cell concepts. In the pre-project, important activities are to precisely identify the needs, in terms of application, physical requirements (size, weight, total energy, life time, maximum power, etc). Furthermore we will contact potential customers and end users - for example Aker Solutions, FMC and Statoil. A patent and literature survey will be performed and the basis for design will be established. Preparations for a MAROFF-application together with an industrial partner will be prepared for. A final report will be prepared.
