HYBRID IS NOTHING NEW!Overlapping technologies in times of transition

Built in England for the Danish Postal Department, she was the first steamship serving the Great Belt route - equipped with steam driven paddle wheels and sails, she is a fine example of 19th century hybrid ship technology

1828Paddle steamer Mercurius

This hybrid-electric and dynamically positioned wind farm service operation vessel with motion compensated gangway is equipped with diesel generators and batteries for optmimum fuel consumption and minimum emissions

The clipper ship built in 1852 was a sailing vessel setting the 1854 world record for fastest sailing ship at 22 kts

Built in 1865 to compete with tea clippers Agamemnon could steam at 10 knots consuming only 20 tons of coal a day thanks to the compound steam engine

Selandia was the largest and most advanced diesel-driven ship at the time of her maiden voyage from Aalborg to London in January 1912 (12 knots)

CMA CGM decides to equip its future nine 22,000+ teu ultra-large container ships (UCLS) to be delivered in 2020 with engines using liquefied natural gas

Clipper Sovereign of the Seas

SS Agamemnon long-distance steamship

Selandia efficient diesel-driven ship

CMA CGM choose LNG for its biggest ships

From wind power to gas fuel

EVOLUTION OF SHIP PROPULSION1850 – 2020

the evolution of ship propulsion from wind power to gas as fuel. And the transition from one to the other gives you periods of overlap; e

The next decade will be crucial

Best solution will depend on ship type, size and operational profile (speed, route, range, load profile)

Transition to decarbonized industry will take time

Both technical and operational measures needed

Incentives are key: shipping is a reflection of society

BEYOND 2020But what to choose today?

No silver bullet

Collective action/investment needed to develop technical means and fuel distribution networks

Alternative fuels: biofuel (diesel, gas), methanol, methane/SNG, hydrogen/ammonia

Alternative power systems: fuel cells, batteries, combined cycle (e.g. diesel-carbonate fuel cell)


BEYOND 2020Operational response?

Battery powered ships on short transit routes with recharging facilities (ferries)

Slower steaming necessary to meet the 2030 carbon intensity reduction ambition of 40%, but

– Minimum propulsion power for safe manoeuvring in heavy weather (IMO)

– Technical adjustments due to higher SFOC

Slower steaming “by design”: optimize hull form and propulsion train for newbuilds, possibly combined with alternative fuels and hybrid technology (multiple design points)

Scale enlargement, but practical limitations

Logistics integration: supply chain view, smart routing, Just-in-Time


LNG suitable as clean transition fuel

– Proven track record, expanding distribution– Step in right direction for CO2/GHG reduction

(despite fossil fuel, methane slip)– Easy switch to carbon neutral ‘drop-in fuels’

(biogas, methane/SNG)

Battery powered ships on short transit routes with recharging facilities (ferries)

Electric-hybrid ships suitable for vessels with large power variations (OSV, tugs, cruise)

Wind assisted propulsion (WAP) suitable to reduce EEDI and emissions

Further design optimization of hull lines, power distribution (DC grid), waste heat recovery (WHR), etc. (gradual improvement)

BEYOND 2020Alternative fuels and propulsion systems?

Moving towards low carbon and carbon free fuels

Fuel Technology Why do Why don’t Zero CO2 emission ship?

LPG Specific fuel handling system (Otto cycle)

Low SOX, PM, possibly low NOX, reduced CO2

Cost considerations No

Methanol Dual-fuel technology Easier to handle than LNG, good infrastructure

High capex, opex higher than LNG, toxic & flammable

No, except when produced from ‘black liquor’

DME(Di-Methyl-Ether)

Produced by fuel conversion (natural gas, coal, biomass)

Low emissions, no spillagecontamination

Low energy density, poor lubrication properties, toxic

Carbon neutral if produced from renewable energy

Biofuels(diesel, gas)

Generally compatible with current engine technology

Good availability, prices comparable to MDO

Sustainability issues regarding production

Yes (low CO2 emissions for biogas production)

Hydrogen Fuel cells & internal combustion engines

Abundant reserves,potentially clean

Energy intensive, high production cost

Yes, if produced from renewable energy (P2X)

Ammonia Fuel cells & internal combustion engines

Easy stroage of hydrogen, potentially clean Still in R&D phase Yes, if produced from

renewable energy (P2X)
