The lithium ion based energy storage system, Orca ESS, will supply electrical power to the PSV\u2019s propulsion system electrical network to enable environmentally-friendly and lower cost operations.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we have experienced with many vessel types, the Orca ESS is ideally suited for the hybridisation of the Far Sun PSV\u201d, said Ronald Hansen, global service manager of Corvus Energy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough close collaboration with Vard, our teams have developed a lean solution which meets the aggressive environmental, safety, performance and operating cost objectives of Farstad and Statoil.\u201d<\/p>\n
The energy storage system will be utilised during all aspects of the PSV\u2019s operation, particularly during dynamic positioning and harbour operations where fuel consumption and emissions will be significantly reduced at sea and in port.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe energy storage system will provide significant savings for Farstad and Statoil over time, enabling the ship to more efficiently utilise energy produced by the generators, as well as simplifying the use of shore power.\u201d<\/p>\n
This will substantially reduce consumption and emissions. Another effect is less noise from ships in port,\u201d said Christian S\u00f8vik, VP global services, Vard Electro.<\/p>\n
To date, Corvus has completed more than 80 marine installations utilising a Corvus ESS, totalling over 45MWh and 1 million operating hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
