Tesvolt Ocean, a new joint endeavor (JV) based in Lübeck, Germany, has actually established a battery system that will make it possible for substantially more ships in the maritime and inland delivering sector to be geared up with tidy e-drives for the very first time.

The JV was just recently formed by German energy storage options company Tesvolt’s Maritime Solutions department (51%) and Norway’s marine battery professional Ocean Batteries (49%).
Area in ships was typically too tight for the compact battery storage systems readily available on the marketplace, previously. The brand-new “Kaptein Series” power storage system has the benefit that the battery modules can be set up separately anywhere aboard the ship– even on the flooring, the JV stated.
As discussed, the brand-new power storage option likewise includes high energy density, lightweight, and quickly charging ability. This makes tidy e-drives for delivering much easier to execute in addition to more affordable.
Tesvolt Ocean provided its brand-new battery storage system at the maritime trade reasonable SMM in Hamburg recently.
“We’re getting in the marketplace with a best-in-class storage system, providing a technological option for the greatest discomfort points of ship owners, system integrators, and shipyards,” Kent Thoresen, CTO of Tesvolt Ocean, commented.
“The series of ships with electrical propulsion, for example, is still an issue for numerous owners. Ship areas are typically confined, so inadequate battery modules can be accommodated to accomplish the wanted variety. At 246 Wh per liter, our brand-new Kaptein system has the greatest energy density on the marketplace to date, indicating regardless of its high capability it uses up extremely little area.”
“We invested 3 years speaking intensively with clients in 6 focus groups about what they require. That’s why Kaptein fits their requirements so well. It resolves genuine issues in e-propulsion for ships,” Kilian Hoffmann, CCO at Tesvolt Ocean, included.
