Two maritime industry experts join forces<\/h2>\n

TESVOLT Maritime Solutions has supplied battery storage systems since 2018, primarily for workboats, deep-sea applications, and aquaculture, but also for pleasure craft and the yachting industry. TESVOLT Maritime Solutions has already equipped 160 ships with environmentally friendly battery propulsion systems, including the award-winning \u201cE-Spatz,\u201d a working vessel of the German Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration. Ocean Batteries has been offering modular, safe, and powerful battery solutions since 2019. TESVOLT holds a 51% stake in the joint venture TESVOLT OCEAN. TESVOLT OCEAN presented its new \u201cKaptein\u201d battery storage system at SMM, the world’s leading maritime industry trade fair, last week in Hamburg.<\/p>\n

Longest range and fastest charging<\/h2>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re entering the market with a best-in-class storage system, offering a technological solution for the biggest pain points of ship owners, system integrators, and shipyards,<\/em>\u201d explained Kent Thoresen, CTO of TESVOLT OCEAN. \u201cThe range of ships with electric propulsion, for instance, is still a problem for many owners. Ship spaces are often cramped, so not enough battery modules can be accommodated to achieve the desired range. At 246 Wh per liter, our new Kaptein system has the highest energy density on the market to date, meaning despite its high capacity it takes up very little space.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Most batteries approved for use in shipping did not even have a continuous C-rate of 2 C. At 4 C, the \u201cKaptein\u201d storage system offers the highest continuous C-rate available in the maritime industry to date. This means significantly shorter charging times for ship owners.<\/p>\n

Light, safe, and individually installable<\/h2>\n

The new storage system also scores highly in terms of weight. At just 4.83 kg per kWh of storage capacity, it will be the lightest battery system for shipping on the market; batteries currently available on the market weigh at least 7 kg per kWh. A unique fire suppression system ensures maximum safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe spent three years speaking intensively with customers in six focus groups about what they need. That’s why Kaptein fits their needs so well. It solves real problems in e-propulsion for ships,\u201d<\/em> added Kilian Hoffmann, CCO at TESVOLT OCEAN. \u201cWe’ve already had a huge number of inquiries about the new battery system.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Support right from the start<\/h2>\n

\u201cEvery customer has different goals. That’s why we always tailor our battery system precisely to the individual customer. Kaptein is not an off-the-shelf product. But due to its special cell-to-module design, it\u2019s exceptionally cost-efficient compared to the rest of the market,\u201d<\/em> said \u00d8ystein Kj\u00e6reng, CEO von TESVOLT OCEAN. \u201cWe\u2019re a one-stop shop, offering planning, installation, and commissioning as well as monitoring, maintenance, and recycling. We want to make a significant contribution with this new product toward accelerating the equipping of shipping with clean e-drives \u2014 as simply and cost-effectively as possible.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
