Hybrid Propulsion System
AKA, in collaboration with their Hybrid Technology partner, XeroPoint Energy, has developed an innovative and efficient means of generating, controlling, storing and distributing power. The flexibility of the system allows the incorporation of a wide range of power producing devices to be interconnected and controlled to efficiently satisfy the requirements of loads of all varieties. Being able to configure the various components to operate only when needed, and only within their optimal range, helps operators realize significant improvements in efficiency and reduction of fuel consumption and emissions.
XeroPoint Hybrid makes great sense for the marine industry. Vessels with a frequently-occurring mix of loiter and working times, or high and low power requirements, are good candidates for hybrid power systems.
XeroPoint Hybrid technology is suitable for new construction and retrofits of existing vessels. The system reduces all emissions, creates significant fuel and maintenance cost savings and contributes to a healthier workplace for crews.
