Hybrid Electric Vessel Propulsion with Integrated Motor Assist

由REAPsystems Ltd领导的项目团队正在开发一种创新的模块化混合动力船舶推进系统，目标是小型商用船舶市场。所提出的新型系统在燃料消耗、发动机额定功率、重量、排放、噪声和振动方面提供了显著的节省。该工业研究项目将持续3年，耗资131.5万英镑。技术开发和整合将由REAP、巴布科克国际公司、Mainstay Marine、SEC Marine、南安普顿大学和James Fisher Defence进行。劳埃德登记处将评估电池系统的安全性。ASV有限公司和海洋保护研究公司将提供船只的集成和海上测试。Marine South East将促进利益相关者和公众参与。项目合作伙伴的收入估计为5年2000万英镑。海洋产业的潜在成本节约为650万英镑，减排量估计为3万吨二氧化碳。所有数字均为每年。

A project team led by REAPsystems Ltd, is developing an innovative modular hybrid marine propulsion system targeting the small commercial vessel market for vessels. The proposed novel system offers significant savings in fuel consumption, engine power rating, weight, emissions, noise and vibrations. This industrial research project will span 3 years and cost £1.315M. Technology development and integration will be undertaken by REAP, Babcock International, Mainstay Marine, SEC Marine, the University of Southampton and James Fisher Defence. Lloyds Register will assess battery system safety. ASV Ltd, and Marine Conservation Research will provide access to vessels for integration and at sea testing. Marine South East will facilitate stakeholder and public engagement.Revenues for the project partners are estimated at £20M at 5 years. The potential cost savings to the marine industry are £6.5M and the emission reduction is estimated to be 30,000 tonnes of CO2. All figures are per annum.
