Electrification in the maritime sector…
Soon, another ship will be converted to diesel electric propulsion with a Volvo Penta D8MG Stage-V generator. This hybrid solution enables the conventional engine to operate within a favourable speed range, resulting in lower fuel consumption, reduced emissions (Stage-V) and optimum efficiency.
Electrification offers concrete advantages:
✔ More efficient use of engine power
✔ Reduction of emissions in accordance with the latest Stage-V / IMO III standards
✔ Future-proof drive
✔ Ready for further integration with alternative hybrid or fully electric systems
The maritime sector is taking serious steps towards sustainability and innovation and we are proud to be part of it. Together we are working on smart and responsible solutions for the fleet of tomorrow.
