Hybrid Marine Power & Propulsion Conference, 6th-8th October 2015, Poole Lifeboat College
The first international ‘Hybrid Marine Power & Propulsion Conference’ is being held at the RNLI Lifeboat College, Poole UK from 6th to 8th October 2015.
Shock Mitigation is bringing together an international group of experts, armed with the latest knowledge that will identify the potential of utilising hybrid power and innovative propulsion systems for vessels in the sub IMO / sub 24 metre professional sector.
Attendees will include end-user organisations, military, boat owners, operators, boat builders, engine manufacturers, mechanical & electrical engineers and naval architects. Break out sessions will focus on the latest diesel / electric systems for wind farm support vessels, pilot boats, patrol craft, survey vessels, superyacht tenders and unmanned craft. Boat builders in the leisure sector will also benefit from attending.
For engine manufacturers, component suppliers and installers the take away knowledge will be relevant for strategic product development, engineering decisions and business development. Besides highlighting opportunities, including the use of electric drives and lithium ion batteries, the ongoing objective is to create affiliations that share engine data and work cycles for vessels in various sectors.
Hybrid is the 'here and now' technology that is being utilised by many industries around the world. It is now a viable option for the professional maritime sector globally. For commercial, professional and military end user organisations the unique knowledge gained from Hybrid Marine Conference presentations will help to shape long term decisions that lead to improvements of in-service systems and procurement of next generation vessels. The objective is improved fuel saving and efficiency by all means.
Lead sponsor of the Hybrid Marine Power & Propulsion Conference is US lithium ion battery manufacturer XALT Energy. Robert Young, Technical Lead for Marine Applications at XALT Energy will share expertise from other transport sectors to identify the potential of hybrid systems for the maritime industry worldwide.
Shock Mitigation events are based on building networks and accelerating knowledge transfer for the sub IMO / sub 24 metre professional sector worldwide.
