Multipurpose eFoiler Platform

2022年初，世界上最大的100%电动衬板船“先锋号”下水后，Artemis Technologies收到了来自世界各地关于其电子衬板技术的广泛应用的询问。虽然这个第一个Artemis-e衬板系统旨在为工作船市场提供可靠和坚固的关键标准，但由于满足MCA工作船规则所需的严格结构要求带来的重量损失，该船的性能受到了影响。虽然工作船有一致的已知操作轮廓，通常从单一港口工作，但需要单一位置的岸上充电解决方案，其他市场的占空比则更为多样；例如，在水上出租车或休闲应用中，每天的里程数和充电基础设施的使用可能会有很大差异。对于这种船舶类别，不同的监管规则导致结构更轻，从而为更小、更高性能的复合箔提供了机会，从而提高了速度和航程。该项目将专注于开发和演示高性能的多功能eFoler平台系统，目标是最高航速40kt，巡航速度下的航程为70海里。为了最大限度地利用全球海上脱碳机会，Artemis开发了一种“忙碌概念”，这是对制造方法的创新改变，将促进世界各地造船厂大规模建造船舶，同时在贝尔法斯特制造高价值的多功能eFoler平台系统。熙熙攘攘的概念包括独立制造船体下部的一部分，这部分将在贝尔法斯特制造，并安装必要的Artemis-eFoeller系统。这是连接到船体，在建造船只的位置。为了成功展示高性能的多用途eFoiler平台系统和丰满的制造理念，Artemis Technologies将与客轮运营商Condor Ferry和豪华游艇制造商Cockwell合作，利用相同的底座丰满/平台技术，在不同的英国造船厂制造并提供真实的水上出租车和豪华招标演示。

Following the launch of the world's largest 100% electric foiling vessel, 'Pioneer', at the beginning of 2022, Artemis Technologies has been inundated with enquiries from all over the world regarding its eFoiler technology across a range of applications.Whilst this first Artemis-eFoiler system was designed to service the workboat market with reliability and robustness the key criteria, performance of the vessel was compromised due to weight penalties incurred from the stringent structural requirements necessary to meet the MCA's Workboat Code.Whilst workboats have a consistent known operational profile, often working from a single port, with a requirement for a single location shore-based charging solution, other markets have a more varied duty cycle; for example, in water taxi or leisure applications where the daily mileage and access to charging infrastructure can vary significantly.For this classification of vessel, different regulatory rules result in lighter structures, opening the opportunity for smaller, higher performing composite foils delivering improved speed and range. This project will focus on the development and demonstration of a high-performance Multipurpose eFoiler Platform system, targeting a top speed of 40kts, with range of 70 nautical miles at cruising speed.In order to maximise the global opportunity of maritime decarbonisation Artemis has developed a 'bustle concept', an innovative change to the manufacturing approach which will facilitate large scale build of vessels at shipyards around the world, whilst manufacturing the high-value Mulitpurpose eFoiler Platform system in Belfast. The bustle concept involves the standalone manufacture of a section of the lower portion of the hull, which will be manufactured in Belfast and filled with an essential Artemis-eFoiler system. This is connected to the hull, at the location where the vessel is built. This novel solution opens the Mulitpurpose eFoiler Platform system technology to a variety of applications, at a wider range of locations.To successfully demonstrate the high-performance Multipurpose eFoiler Platform systems and bustle manufacturing concept, Artemis Technologies will work with passenger vessel operator, Condor Ferries, and luxury yacht maker, Cockwells, to build and deliver real world demonstration of a water taxi and a luxury tender, utilising the same base bustle/platform technology but with different top-hats, manufactured at different UK shipyards.
