What is a task-aware energy management strategy for ship power systems?

This study proposes an operation task-aware energy management strategy for ship power systems that consist of main engines, diesel–electric engines, and energy storage systems. The proposed strategy aims to meet the fuel consumption and task-dependent objectives of the vessel by optimally dispatching the generation and storage units.

What is Task-Aware optimal dispatch of the ship power system?

Hence, it can be concluded that the proposed task-aware optimal dispatch of the ship power system addresses the differences in the operation task requirements while considering the topology of the ship power system architecture while optimising respective objectives of the operation task.

What is a ship-to-ship power supply system?

act On Emissions ReductionShore-to-ship power supply systems allow vessels to plug into an onshore power supply and shut down their auxil ary engines while berthed. The ship’s power load is seamlessly fed by the shore-side power supply without d

What if rules and regulations are not considered in designing energy management strategy?

The comparison with the base case clearly illustrates that if rules and regulations of the ship operation are not considered in designing the energy management strategy, the result obtained will not be an accurate representation of the actual operation of the vessel.

What is energy storage system (ESS)?

The integration of energy storage systems (ESSs) allows operation flexibility of the on-board generators by optimally allocating the generator loading in an economic and environmentally-friendly fashion.

What are the energy management strategies for a ship based microgrid?

Thus far, the energy management strategies proposed in the literature are very much similar to the land-based isolated microgrid with the closely connected bus-ties and assumed the aggregated power demand of the ship, which can be shared by any combination of generation and storage unit.
