The 1 MWh lithium ion-based Energy Storage System (ESS) will enable emissions-free berthing of the Stena Jutlandica<\/em>, which will make Stena the first Swedish ferry operator to operate a ferry with zero emissions in port.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Stena Jutlandica<\/em> will be a showcase ship whose impact extends beyond the boundaries of Scandinavia and the passenger ferry industry,\u201d said Halvard Hauso, SVP, sales and key accounts at Corvus Energy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited about working with the talented people at Stena Teknik, Callenberg, and Stena Line to bring their visions of sustainable shipping to fruition.\u201d<\/p>\n

EU funding<\/strong><\/p>\n

The project, which is co-financed by the European Union and Swedish Transport Administration, will initially involve employing plug-in hybrid technology that charges with shore power and draws on battery power for bow thrusters and manoeuvring when berthing in port.<\/p>\n

But the ultimate goal is for the Stena Jutlandica<\/em> to operate fully on battery power, requiring an estimated 50 MWh of stored energy for the 3 hours and 25-minute crossing between Gothenburg, Sweden and Frederikshavn, Denmark.<\/p>\n

Stena Teknik, Stena\u2019s marine technical solutions branch, is working with electrical system integrator Callenberg Technology Group, part of Trident Maritime Systems, to incorporate the Corvus Energy 1 MWh capacity Orca Energy ESS.<\/p>\n

“We look forward to gathering knowledge about electric operation and continuing to explore the role that battery operation can play as an alternative to traditional fuel and eliminating emissions,\u201d said Per Wimby, project manager at Stena Teknik.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
