This AiP follows another issued by ABS in 2017 for W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s hybrid propulsion tug designs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis AiP is an important step in the development of our eco-friendly hybrid propulsion system, which can be applied to a variety of vessel types,\u201d said Giulio Tirelli, director, sales & business intelligence, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Marine Solutions.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy working with ABS, we are demonstrating the viability of hybrid vessels in a range of applications and highlighting the capability to the US Market and further afield.\u201d<\/p>\n
Combined power<\/strong><\/p>\n Mr Tirelli said that the W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 HY was developed by leveraging W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s technical strengths in both engine design and electrical and automation (E&A) systems.<\/p>\n The fully integrated hybrid power module combines engines, an energy storage system and power electronics, optimised to work together through a newly developed energy management system (EMS).<\/p>\n According to Mr Tirelli, it is the marine sector\u2019s first hybrid power module of this type produced, thereby establishing a “new industry benchmark” in marine hybrid propulsion.<\/p>\n With the increased industry focus on environmental compliance and operational performance, many ship owners and operators are shifting their attention to electric propulsion and non-conventional sources of power.<\/p>\n Consequently, ABS has published an Advisory on Hybrid Electric Power Systems to provide guidance in the development of new concepts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s hybrid power module the W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 HY, has been granted Approval in Principle (AIP) by ABS another step forward to expand approval of its hybrid designs for power and propulsion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":114,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-electrification-and-battery-hybrids"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":115,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113\/revisions\/115"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
