Case studies on electrification

17:00 Welcome & Introduction by Organizers

The presentation will cover the background for DFDS deciding to go into shore power installations and a bit about our general policy on this topic. Further an overview will be provided on the regulatory framework and the derived “standard” chosen for our vessels, based on the available regulations, supplemented by a more detailed description of an actual installation (On the
Jinling-series), and learnings for the first installations completed within DFDS. Finally, some words on the expected development for shore power in general.

A presentation of key challenges in designing battery containers, and how they were overcome in effective solutions.

18:00 - 18:30 Refreshments

Based on an example: Technical aspects, selection of solution, investment, savings.

The full electric Harbour Busses in Copenhagen operated by Arriva Danmark A/S are now in operation for 2 years. The initial program consisted of five ferries including two fast charging systems and was later extended with an additional two vessels and a third charging station. The network of electrical harbour busses has been the first of its kind world-wide and provides a great showcase for any other city around the world. The project itself required significant innovation with regards to the electrical propulsion and charging systems, which at that time had not been seen for smaller
ferries. The presentation given will give insights on the technological developments and the challenges seen from a design and operational perspective.
