PwrSteer
Maintaining steering in the event of a BLACK OUT
Shift PwrSteer is a solution to prevent the loss of operational control in the event of a blackout or power disaster. The easily mounted battery cartridge(s) provide a low CAPEX solution to deliver the power needed to remain in control of a container ship in the event of a blackout.
How container ships — with their huge demand for power — respond in an emergency can make or break the situation.
With limited power reserves, most container ships will have only minimal capabilities from backup lead-acid batteries while backup generators come online. The recent incident in the Suez Canal has shown just how dangerous a loss of steering can be, and how vulnerable the chokepoint in global trade are to events which stem from a failure on a single vessel.
After a blackout, the emergency generators will take at least 45 seconds to start, during which time the ability to steer the vessel is lost, and wind, currents, or waves are in control. These seconds are when control of a ship can be lost, and can make the difference between a collision or a safe response.
In the event of any kind of loss of generator ensure your vessel is neither run aground nor faces a collision.





SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS
An easily installed ePod battery solution
The solution benefits from rapid retrofit, which can be implemented without operational interference. Put simply: no vessel downtime. The transferable cartridges can be moved from asset to asset for charter ships.
Unlike lead-acid batteries, Shift’s liquid-cooled lithium-ion batteries can supply the power needed to enable the crew to maintain steering and control of the emergency switchboard regardless of the situation — enabling full control of your vessel at all times.
Accidents resulting from loss of power not only put your crew, vessel, and surrounding ships in danger. They also result in increased insurance costs and compensation as a result of losses inflicted to other ships or a canal authority.

FORSEA ELECTRIC FERRY

All Electric. 8,414 Tonnes.
The Aurora is a fully electric passenger ferry. It measures 111 m and weighs 8,414 tonnes. It operates on a 4 km ferry route between Helsingborg (Sweden) and Helsingör (Denmark). The massive ship carries 7.4 million passengers and 1.9 million vehicles annually.
The system is comprised of 640 6.6 kWh batteries installed on top of each ferry in containers. Cables run from the containers to connecting points at each end of the ship.
Charging: All pre-docking procedures are based on 3D laser scanning and wireless communication between ship and shore. During the last 400 mm of the ferry’s approach the robot will reach out and pull the shore cable
from the ship. The cable reel releases the cable and the robot moves the connectors to the corresponding connectors below the robot. After the connection is made, the robot moves back to the home position and the rollup doors closes. The robot will reside inside its own building when not in use.
ZERO EMISSIONS



ForSea Ferries have chosen to charge their batteries with “green electricity”, from non-fossil fuel sources such as wind, water and solar energy. This means that there are no emissions from the battery-operated vessel.

The system is comprised of 640 6.6 kWh batteries installed on top of each ferry in containers. Cables run from the containers to connecting points at each end of the ship.

FINNFERRIES HYBRID FERRY
3 Power Modes - Electric, Hybrid, Diesel Electric
This double-ended ferry has paved the way for a new type of ship, the hybrid/electric ro-ro. Finnish stateowned ferry operator FinFerries is only the second operator in the world to build such a vessel but remains the first of its kind to recharge its batteries at each end directly from the domestic power grid; Norwegian Ampere was the first however it draws its power from banks of batteries at each terminal. In June 2017, the Elektra began regular operation between Nauvo and Parainen in the Turku archipelago. Designed to be a 24/7 workhorse, it travels this route every 15 minutes during peak hours and once an hour over overnight.
The System: The two lithium-ion battery packs each have a capacity of 530 kWh (1MWh total storage), one in the forward and one in the aft machinery space. Both banks are
charged simultaneously but each is dedicated to one of the thrusters. Each trip uses about 15% of the batteries’ capacity, which must be replaced during each brief port call. This energy storage system was design for a 10-year lifetime.
The engine room is equipped with a pair of 900kW, Z-drive, azimuthing thrusters from Rolls-Royce, and three diesel generators –divided between two engine rooms, each deliver 420 kWh when needed.
CHARGING IN 5 MINUTES

Because of the harsh winter conditions in Finland, the ferry can use diesel engines to support the onboard batteries, which serve as an extra boost travelling through ice. This gives three power modes: pure battery; diesel-battery hybrid and dieselelectric. And to add to her eco-friendly profile, just below the bridge, rows of photovoltaic cells from Activesol of Poland, provide enough power during summer months to run the air conditioning and other hotel loads.
The value of energy storage compared with the existing conventional ship on the route, Sterna, Elektra carries 40% more vehicles but with 60% less emissions and the electricity cost is trivial: just €5 (US$6) of electricity per crossing.


Charging in 5 Minutes: The fast-turnaround pattern for the ferry means that it only leaves a minimal, five minutes at the quay for recharging. The ferry docks with a Cavotec vacuum auto-mooring system which holds the vessel in the right position,a laser sensor guides the connector that opens from the side of the vessel where it connects to the ship’s battery to begin charging.

TORGHATTEN HYBRID FERRIES
Retrofit hybrid ships
Melshorn and Vardehorn low-emissions ferries are part of the ongoing push for zero/low emission public transportation in Norway.
Each 102m vessel can carry 120 automobiles and 350 passengers. The Melshorn operates on the 25-minute crossing on E6, Bogenes to Skarberget and Vardehorn runs the 45-minute crossing R827, Drag to Kjøpsvik. Identical ships, each vessel contains 520kWh of Shift Power 65 batteries providing 1000V to the DC bus.
The ships now use two of the four motors, which can now run on optimal load. The crew also has access to immediate extra power from the battery system if necessary.
The two 18-year-old ferries now see a 20% savings in fuel with battery power. The project has been so successful that the ferries are soon to be upgraded from hybrid to fully electric propulsion
