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

Project description

Innovative energy storage solutions for ships

The Zero-emission Waterborne Transport (ZEWT) partnership in Europe aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 by providing sustainable solutions for all main types of waterborne transport by 2030. To achieve this objective, the EU-funded NEMOSHIP project will contribute new technological solutions. It will develop a modular and standardised battery energy storage system that can efficiently use a variety of storage units. A cloud-based digital platform will also be created that enables data-driven decision-making for optimal and safe utilisation. The innovations will be demonstrated on a retrofitted hybrid offshore service vessel, a newly designed hybrid cruise vessel (liquefied natural gas/electric propulsion), and two fully-electric vessels (ferries and short-sea shipping) in a semi-virtual setting. NEMOSHIP will significantly contribute to achieving the ZEWT partnership’s objectives.

Objective

NEMOSHIP ambition is 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 vessel (hybrid diesel/electric after NEMOSHIP BESS installation), (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 to 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.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/euroscivoc.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
