The operational requirements of the hybrid and all-electric power systems are defined at the beginning of the design process; allocating space, weight, loading profile for the equipment and systems that will be installed during construction and operated during the service life of the vessel.
The system protection requirements for hybrid/all-electric power systems are to comply with 4-8-2/9 of the Marine Vessel Rules, 4-3-2/9.11 of MOU Rules or 3/15 of the ABS Requirements for DC Power Distribution Systems as applicable.
EU regulation, adapted under the Fit for 55 program, is focused on OPS for container and passenger ships because these segments produce the highest emissions per ship. Two regulations will drive adoption of OPS for these segments:
According to FuelEU Article 6 (1), from 1 January 2030, container and passenger ships over 5,000 GT moored for more than two hours in TEN-T ports, which satisfy AFIR Article 9 conditions outlined above, must use OPS to meet all their electric power demand while moored.
EU regulations on shoreside power are poised to introduce low-carbon electricity into marine energy mix with limited impact on the transition into sustainable fuels, assuming charging
