New modular Electrical architecture and digital platforM to Optimise large battery systems on SHIPs

NEMOSHIP ambitions to contribute to the European Partnership “Zero Emission Waterborne Transport (ZEWT)” objectives by providing new deployable technological solutions needed for all main types of waterborne transport to reach a “net zero emission” by 2050.To reach this goal, NEMOSHIP will:- develop (i) a modular and standardised battery energy storage solution enabling to exploit heterogeneous storage units and (ii) a cloud-based digital platform enabling a data-driven optimal and safe exploitation,- demonstrate these innovations at TRL 7 maturity for hybrid ships and their adaptability for full-electric ships thanks to: (i) a retrofitted hybrid Offshore Service Vessel (diesel/electric propulsion), (ii) a newly designed hybrid cruise vessel (LNG/electric propulsion) and (iii) a semi-virtual demonstration for two additional full-electric vessels such as ferries and short-sea shipping.All results will be built upon a treasure chest of 18-years of ESS operation data.Thanks a very ambitious exploitation plan, accompanied by very large dissemination actions, the NEMOSHIP consortium estimates that these innovations will reach the following impacts by 2030: (i) electrification of about 7% of the EU fleet; (ii) generate a potential revenue of €300M thanks to the sales of the NEMOSHIP products and services; (iii) reduce EU maritime GHG emissions by 30% compared to business as usual (BAU) scenario; and (iv) create at least 260 direct jobs (over 1000 indirect).The NEMOSHIP consortium is composed of 11 partners (3 RTO, 1 SME, 7 large companies) and covers the whole value chain, from research-oriented partners and dissemination and exploitation specialists to software developers, energy system designers, integration partners, naval architects and end-users.
