The emission reductions mandated by International Maritime Regulations present an
opportunity to implement full electric and hybrid vessels using large-scale battery energy …

Ease of integration of the variable speed diesel generators resulting in substantial reduction
of the fuel consumption is the key motivation for the development of the dc shipboard power …

This paper proposes an energy management system (EMS) of the electrical system of a
luxury ship (yacht). Starting from the analysis of the current configuration of the electric …

Mechanical machinery has dominated the field of ship propulsion systems in the last
century. Since fuel accounts for a large portion of the ship life-cycle cost, the current trend of …

Evolution of technology is significantly increasing the presence of hybrid-electric power
systems in offshore (support/operation) vessels. They require high dynamic response …

In the case of the electric propulsion system on the vessel, Diode Front End (DFE) rectifiers
have been applied for large-sized ships and Active Front End (AFE) rectifiers have been …

Reducing the human environmental impact is one of the most critical issues nowadays: in
this perspective, the progressive decommissioning of fossil fuels is a significant priority to …

Electrical networks of ships have less generation capacity compared to conventional large
power systems. This leads to high frequency fluctuations and maybe blackout, especially in …

This paper deals with electrical energy from multi-sources intended to feed a propulsion
system of a boat. These energy sources consist of photovoltaic panels, fuel cells …

The paper conceives a flexible new generation naval ship Destroyer (DDX, Destroyer,
Experimental) with a primary focus on low environmental footprint, high efficiency, and …
