Highly Efficient Retrofitted Zero Emissions Coaster

**H*ighly**E**高效**R**etr**O**安装**Z**er**o E**任务**C**Oaster(HEROZEC)目前，北欧短海的船东由于资本成本、技术挑战和技术冗余的高风险，无法安装或改装新技术。HEROZEC的目标是通过展示一种可能的解决方案来克服这一障碍，降低采用的风险和已知的运行条件。HEROZEC的目标是为现有的短海航运公司提供模块化、创新的零排放解决方案，为英国和欧洲现有的短海船队提供颠覆性技术，以实现2030年及以后的排放目标。HEROZEC考虑以下创新技术：-为典型的短海货船设计的新型GATE Rudder概念，旨在降低动力要求以及相关的燃料消耗和二氧化碳排放30%-35%。-考虑到模块化和灵活性的与燃料无关的机舱设计；绿色甲醇将被视为一次装满，而其他绿色生物燃料和零碳燃料将被容纳，以提供氢气就绪的设计。-使用绿色甲醇和混合动力电力推进概念；几种配置(甲醇重整和燃料电池、往复式发动机或其他创新概念)的可交换甲醇燃料发电机的组件，结合电池组、电动或混合动力推进单元。-模块化集装箱甲醇储罐，以促进安全和无缝的加油过程。-最佳绿色甲醇生产和供应链减少电力需求和燃料消耗将减少35%的可交换发电机数量(即从6台发电机减少到4台发电机)，甲醇存储所需的空间也将减少。建议的解决方案将通过对框架内有目标船的现有沿海船舶进行技术可行性研究而变得可行，综合效果将为现有船舶提供零排放，而货物能力损失有限。

**H**ighly **E**fficient **R**etr**O**fitted **Z**er**o E**missions **C**oaster (HEROZEC)There is currently a barrier to shipowners in the North European short sea being able to install or retrofit new technology because of the capital costs, technical challenges and high risk of technological redundancy from being an early adopter. HEROZEC is aiming to overcome this barrier by demonstrating that a solution is possible, with a reduced risk of adoption and known operating conditions.HEROZEC aims to offer a modular, innovative, zero-emission solution for existing short sea shipping coasters to provide disruptive technologies for the UK and European existing short sea fleets to achieve 2030 emissions targets and beyond.HEROZEC considers the following innovative technologies:-The novel GATE Rudder concept for a typical short sea cargo vessel with an aim of reducing the power requirements as well as associated fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions by 30-35%.-The fuel-agnostic engine room design considering modularity and flexibility; green methanol will be considered as primary full, whilst other green biofuels and zero-carbon fuels will be accommodated to provide hydrogen ready design.-Use green methanol and hybrid electric propulsion concepts; modules of exchangeable methanol-fuelled generators of several configurations (methanol reformer and fuel cells, reciprocating engines, or other innovative concepts), combined with batteries packs, electric or hybrid propulsion units.- Modular containerised methanol storage tanks to facilitate a safe and seamless bunkering process.-Optimal green methanol production and supply chainReduction in power requirement and fuel consumption will reduce the number of exchangeable generators by 35% (i.e. from 6 generators to 4 generators) and space required for the methanol storage will also be reduced. The proposed solution will be made viable through a techno-feasibility study for the existing coaster ships with a target ship in the frame.The combined effect will provide zero-emission existing ships with limited cargo capacity loss.
