Eidesvik Viking Queen retrofitted with 650 kWh energy storage system for hybrid system
Eidesvik is retrofitting its offshore support vessel (OSV) Viking Queen with a 650 kWh, 1600 kW energy storage system. The Viking Queen is the first OSV to get such a system installed as a retrofit solution. The agreement is made possible through targeted cooperation between Lundin Norway AS which has the vessel on hire; ZEM AS, the supplier of the system; and Eidesvik.
ZEM is partnering with electric drive technology company Nidec ASI in this project. ZEM was founded in 2009 by Jan Olaf Willums, former CEO of EV company ThinkGlobal, and Salman Farmanfarmaian to create a hub for battery-related knowledge and to pursue opportunities in the electric maritime, mobility and microgrid storage markets. ZEM’s technology development is led by Egil Mollestad, the former CTO of Think.
Eidesvik said the commercialization of the technology is now possible much because of the R&D project FellowSHIP, in which the partners have worked with battery technology for 5 years.
Use of the energy storage system will result in a fuel saving of approx. 18% for the vessel from the hybrid system. Further, NOx and greenhouse gas (CO2e) emission levels will be reduced by approximately 25%.
In addition to the agreement for energy storage system, Lundin Norway AS and Eidesvik have agreed an extension of the vessel’s contract.
