Clean Hybrid Alternative Marine Project (CHAMP)

国际海事组织的温室气体研究强调，海上运输每年排放约9.4亿吨二氧化碳，占全球温室气体的2.5%左右。如果不采取行动，预计到2050年将增加50%至250%。随着全球对可持续性和脱碳的日益关注，国际海事组织的目标是到2050年减少50%的排放量。与此同时，海事当局正在强制要求更环保的驱动解决方案，特别是在码头和城市水道等封闭区域。技术在实现大幅度减少二氧化碳排放方面发挥着关键作用。然而，该行业必须不断发展，以适应提高可持续性的新技术，特别是已经在其他行业（如汽车行业）开发和展示的技术。由Mathwall工程有限公司领导的CHAMP（清洁混合动力替代船舶动力系统）旨在展示将混合动力技术引入娱乐、国防和中小型商业船舶所能实现的潜在性能。该项目将开发和原型化关键技术，包括可持续燃料的应用，从而实现混合动力系统在这些行业的快速部署。这种方法为实现零排放能力迈出了重要的一步。该项目还将制定技术路线图，通过后续步骤实现零排放能力。Mathwall Engineering设计了一种独特的架构和控制策略，提供了领先的可持续运行水平，同时允许访问混合动力系统的高性能潜力。该项目旨在：1)验证混合动力系统在船舶市场中的作用，评估我们提出的架构的技术和商业可行性。2)开发、制造和演示能够部署混合解决方案的关键技术。3)利用数字工程工具和技术支持设计过程，加上基于钻机的验证，使程序时间大大缩短。4)交付技术演示肋骨，在适当具有挑战性的现实环境中验证项目概念目标和属性。5)调查并展示一种运营模式，使休闲游艇俱乐部能够在碳中和的环境中提供服务。6)制定路线图，帮助行业实现电力和零碳推进，包括与全球船舶制造商和系统集成商对接的商业战略，使英国船舶动力总成行业能够将自己定位为混合动力和零排放船舶解决方案的技术和产品的首要供应商。CHAMP旨在建立自主能力，并将项目合作伙伴定位在海洋应用中可持续推进的最前沿。

The International Maritime Organisation's Greenhouse Gas study highlighted that maritime transportation emits around 940 million tonnes of CO2 annually and is responsible for around 2.5% of global greenhouse gas. Without action it is projected to increase between 50% and 250% by 2050\. With the ever-increasing global focus on sustainability and decarbonisation, the IMO targets a 50% reduction in emissions by 2050\. In parallel, marine authorities are mandating greener drive solutions, especially in closed areas such as marinas and city waterways. Technology has a key role to play in achieving an aggressive reduction in CO2\. However, the industry must evolve to adapt new technologies that increase sustainability, especially technologies that have been developed and demonstrated in other industries, such as the automotive sector. CHAMP (Clean Hybrid Alternative Marine Powertrains), led by Mathwall Engineering Limited, aims to demonstrate the potential performance that can be achieved with introduction of hybrid technology in recreational, defence and small to medium-sized commercial vessels. The project will develop and prototype key technologies, including the application of sustainable fuels, enabling rapid deployment of hybrid powertrains across these sectors. This approach provides a significant step towards zero emission capability. The project will also build the technology road map to deliver zero emission capability through follow-on steps. Mathwall Engineering has designed a unique architecture and control strategy that provides leading levels of sustainable operation, whilst allowing access to the high performance potential of a hybrid powertrain. The project aims to: 1) Validate the role of hybrid powertrains in marine markets, evaluating technical and commercial feasibility of our proposed architecture. 2) Develop, manufacture and demonstrate key technologies that enable deployment of a hybrid solution. 3) Support the design process with digital engineering tools and techniques, plus rig based validation, allowing programme timing to be significantly compressed. 4) Deliver a technical demonstration rib, validating project concept targets and attributes in a suitably challenging real-world setting. 5) Investigate and demonstrate an operational model, allowing a recreational boat club to deliver services in a carbon neutral environment. 6) Create a roadmap that helps industry achieve electric and zero carbon propulsion, including the commercial strategy for interfacing with global boat manufacturers and system integrators, enabling UK marine powertrain industry to position itself as the premiere supplier of technology and products for hybrid and zero emission marine solutions. CHAMP aims to build sovereign capability and position the project partners at the forefront of sustainable propulsion in marine applications.
