Containerized energy storage systems for hybrid solutions
Ingeteam offers turnkey energy storage systems ready to hybridize electric powered vessels, both on retrofit and new built vessels.
This solution increases the efficiency, flexibility and safety of a standard AC powered vessel, providing great benefits as:
• Increased power plant availability, maintenance reduction, greater engine operational life, emissions reduction.
• Economic benefits such as fuel consumption reduction, lower OPEX and longer maintenance cycles.
Ingeteam’s Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is a compact solution to be installed in a standard AC power plant.
This solution is suitable for electrically driven vessels where the power plant availability requirements are very tight such as during DP mode, navigation on emission controlled or zero emission areas or simply to increase efficiency during low demand.
The standard equipment delivered in the BESS container is:
• Batteries.
• Dual connection Shore/MSB.
• AC/DC drives.
• Cooling and ventilation.
• Fire protection.
• Control system, including EMS.
Ingeteam’s BESS provides the following functionality:
- Peak Shaving
- Dynamic Boost Power/Enhanced frequency regulation
- Load Balance for enhanced power plant stability (Load Sharing)
- Fixed load/Optimal rate of load change mode for engine fuel consumption reduction and optimal efficiency
- 50/60 Hz Shore connection
- Spinning Reserve/UPS
- Full electric operation mode (zero emissions)
