SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE

Smart Transformer for Enhanced Efficiency and Sustainability in Maritime Transportation

CORDIS · observation · Publication date unknown

lid state-transformer technology, a secondary low voltage DC grid architecture and components for integration of fuel cells and batteries as well as a new smart management and control system based on Artificial Intelligence to increase energy efficiency of large ships. New standards will be established for the DC grid. The system developed will be validated (DNV approved) for market deployment as well as fully tested in lab (individual elements) and then integrated for testing and validation in a relevant environment at the Energy House (a full-scale onshore test centre for testing future fuels for maritime applications) and demonstrated in a real environment through integration in the RV NorthStar Research ship that will operate in real conditions over 30 days. The STEESMAT consortium’s goal is to bring to the market the first power electronic system based on SST that completely meets the needs and expectations of large-scale (high powered) ships. The STEESMAT consortium is composed by companies with industrial/commercial interest in the project results: Wärtsilä (NO), Eaton (DE, CZ
