Electrification is a key building block on our journey to decarbonise the marine industry. The use of electrical systems onboard will enable smarter propulsion systems that are resilient and flexible enough to adapt to future changing needs. Combining electrical propulsion and the move towards renewable energy sources opens up an interesting route to profitable decarbonisation - enabling vessels to reduce emissions and fuel costs dramatically.

Panel discussion: How onboard DC grids assist shipowners and operators to decarbonise
With increasing ship electrification and hybridization DC has made a comeback. Developments in power electronics, renewable energy, and energy storage systems (ESS) have supported the growth of the DC-grid. It is also affected by market demands for cleaner and more efficient electric power against stricter environmental regulations. This expert panel will discuss the benefits for ship owners and operators.
Wärtsilä’s integrated offering – which covers every aspect of hybrid power generation, management and storage – provides owners and operators with the building blocks for a more sustainable and profitable tomorrow.
As the current industry leader, Wärtsilä has to date delivered and received orders for over 100 vessels – with a growing market share of over 25%, and a combined installed battery capacity surpassing 250 MWh.
Visit us at our stand #3030 where experts will be on hand to share detail on reference cases and solutions supporting our journey to electrify shipping.
