The two Norwegian Electric Systems (NES) Quest-2 Energy Storage Systems will be installed onboard two Havila Shipping platform supply vessels to help reduce fuel consumption and emissions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe future looks bright for NES with state-of-the-art products and systems which can compete internationally,\u201d said Jan Berg, EVP business development. NES.<\/p>\n
He pointed out that the systems will be installed on Havila Charisma<\/em>, a Havyard design, HD833L, built at Havyard Ship Technology, Leirvik in December 2012. NES had previously supplied this vessel`s diesel electric propulsion system.<\/p>\n The other vessel is Havila Foresight<\/em>, a MT 60120 MKII, designed by Marin Teknikk and delivered in December 2007.<\/p>\n Both these vessels will be retrofitted with battery containers with an energy capacity of 625kWh and possibilities for extension to 750kWh. The idea is that the Quest-2 system will be utilised in three different modes for transit\/ steaming, stand-by\/ harbour and Dynamic Positioning (DP) mode.<\/p>\n NES said that experience shows that the average savings in the three different modes can be 5-10% in transit, 20% in standby\/ harbour and 25-30% in DP mode.<\/p>\n The fuel consumption and emissions will be significantly reduced in DP mode, where the batteries work as a spinning reserve.<\/p>\n NES has been working on its energy storage systems with a view to adapting them to fit any marine market segment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A Norwegian offshore shipping operator looks to benefit from savings created by energy storage systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":11243,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-11242","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-products-services-greenport"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11242"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11242\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11244,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11242\/revisions\/11244"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11242"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=11242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
