Ocean Charger paves the way for sustainable business at sea. ⚡ Since officially launched in February 2023, the prototyping phase of the Ocean Charger project is now finalized. Charging tests have been conducted in port as well as testing of the offshore connection solution. Together with our partners, we have demonstrated that the Ocean Charger is an important step towards delivering zero emission ships to the wind industry. 🌊 Read more about the project on our website: https://lnkd.in/gDje2U7S Vard Design | Seaonics AS | Vard Electro | Equinor | Rem Offshore | Solstad Offshore ASA | SINTEF Ocean | Digicat | Marine Energy Test Centre (METCentre) | Source Galileo Norge | Corvus Energy | Shoreline Wind | Plug Power | University of Bergen (UiB)) | NCE Maritime CleanTech | NORCE Norwegian Research Centre | Sustainable Energy Norwegian Catapult Centre | Siva SF | Innovation Norway | Reach Subsea | SINTEF Energy Research | The Research Council of Norway #shipbuilding #innovation #oceancharger #sustainablefuture #greentransition

The ocean charger project and what it represents, the ability to charge vessels offshore, it's a central enabler for us as shipbuilders to deliver 0 emission ships to the offshore wind industry. The innovation in this is that we are combining known technology, unknown procedures. You have many great partners with different type of knowledge and experience, together making a very good product. The benefit of this solution is that a full electric gassaway can operate out in the wind form without going to shore for charging operation. For us it's extremely important to be a part of the Ocean Charger project. We can show what we have told for years and now we have partners bringing this along and we can prove it to the market that is doable. We have been doing charging test in port where we are doing high voltage charging of the ship's batteries. And we have been testing the Ocean Charger offshore connection solution and we have demonstrated quite successfully that we can connect and disconnect the cable under certain conditions. For an economy as of Ravine farm developer, this is a big step. We have ambitious goals to reduce emissions from our maritime activities. We have proven that the concept can be done. So we are really proud of all the partners here and we are looking forward to the next phase.
