The power setup onboard will be managed by ABB&#8217;s integrated Power and Energy Management System (PEMS), which will ensure optimal use of the vessel\u2019s total power resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis order continues the maritime shift towards greener hybrid power and propulsion technology, and confirms that the reliability, redundancy and inherent safety of Onboard DC Grid are available for even the most specialized of vessels,\u201d said Sindre S\u00e6tre, head of ABB Marine &amp; Ports in Norway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Improved information flow<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PEMS allows the integrated electrical system to leverage the high-speed digital communication within ABB switchboards, protection devices and controllers to improve information flow and provide full system control from power generation to consumption.
