ENERGY EFFICIENCY - CONTRIBUTION BY OPTIMIZING THE LAYOUT OF THE SHIP'S SWITCHBOARD

Efforts to reduce global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have significant implications for the maritime sector. Reducing global emissions requires that newly built ships become more energy efficient or that all subcomponents of ship systems improve their individual or overall energy efficiency. As a result, ship electrification, which is considered to be the most viable proposed method to achieve the emissions reduction goal, will place a large burden on the ship electrical system. The projected load will lead to improvements in all aspects of the electrical system (power generation, distribution, and consumption). This paper addresses the optimization of the distribution system, or specifically the important subcomponent, the main switchboard, through previously developed improvements, starting from the definition of the switchboard parameters, through the modification of the busbar configuration area and the implementation of novel sensor technology, to ultimately optimize the design compared to an existing solution.
