Shipyard Energy Storage Cabinet

What is energy storage unit?

Energy Storage Unit has a modular design to enable highly cost efficient, standardised and scalable solutions. The sealed cabinet has a liquid thermal management system which ensures that the battery cells is safely and efficiently cooled to deliver the calculated life-time of the application

How does a maritime energy storage system work?

The maritime energy storage system stores energy when demand is low, and delivers it back when demand increases, enhancing the performance of the vessel’s power plant. The flow of energy is controlled by ABB’s dynamic Energy Storage Control System.

What is a containerized maritime energy storage solution?

ABB’s containerized maritime energy storage solution is a complete, fireproof self-contained battery solution for a large-scale marine energy storage.

Why do energy storage units need a cabinet structure?

Modules within the energy storage unit can easily be mounted after the cabinet structure is in place to avoid heavy lifting of the sections, and also to avoid damage during a ship’s construction period. The cabinet structure protects against solid foreign objects and ingress of water.

What is containerized energy storage?

ABB’s containerized energy storage solution is a complete, self-contained battery solution for a large-scale marine energy storage. The batteries and all control, interface, and auxiliary equipment are delivered in a single shipping container for simple installation on board any vessel. How does containerized energy storage work?

How would a self-contained energy storage system benefit a vessel?

Offshore support vessels, for instance, would particularly benefit from a self-contained solution, as the electrical room space on board is especially limited. Flexible and cost-effective energy storage system technology would also be relevant to container ships, ferries, drill ships and other vessel types.
