Key Drivers of Battery Pack for Marine Hybrid & Full Electric Propulsion Market
Over the last few years, adoption of hybrid propulsion systems in retrofit ships as well as new ships has significantly increased. This can ascribed to various benefits provided by hybrid propulsion systems. Hybrid propulsion provides high variation in operation modes, which is required to address flexible power demand. This results in increase in overall operational capability of the engine. A propeller can be driven by a diesel engine or an electric motor, which provides a highly redundant and reliable propulsion system. Reduced engine operating costs are led by the optimum use of the main engine and auxiliary gensets. Both the main engine and auxiliary gensets are used to provide the required amount of power, with optimal load and minimal specific fuel oil consumption. This reduces consumption of fuel, leading to reduction in emissions of CO2, SOx and NOx.
Furthermore, vessel operators are using renewable energy, such as solar and wind energy, as power sources while at dock or in sea. The energy is stored in batteries, which can be used during peak hours in marine propulsion systems. This reduces the use of fossil fuel. Hence, increase in the adoption of hybrid and full electric propulsion systems is estimated to boost the global battery pack for marine hybrid & full electric propulsion market in the near future.

Countries such as China and Japan are expected to dominate the battery pack for marine hybrid & full electric propulsion market in Asia Pacific in the next few years, as these countries have the maximum number of ships in the world. Furthermore, changing government policies to reduce carbon emissions in the region are expected to drive the global battery pack for marine hybrid & full electric propulsion market during the forecast period.
Major Developments in Battery Pack for Marine Hybrid & Full Electric Propulsion Market
In November 2019, Corvus Energy announced to have signed a contract with the U.K.-based SEC Marine Ltd to supply an energy storage system (ESS) for the world’s first hybrid surface effect ship (SES) for use in crew transfer. SEC Marine Ltd is developing the SES vessel in response to an industry-wide drive to develop and utilize innovative technologies that help lower CO2 emissions and cost-effectively service offshore wind energy farms. In February 2020, Corvus Energy announced to have been selected by Damen Shipyards to provide energy storage systems (ESSs) to BC Ferries for four new battery-hybrid ferries. BC Ferries had placed a repeat order for four Damen Road Ferries with 8117 E3 design— also known as ‘Island Class’ vessels of BC Ferries with Damen Shipyards Group. These four ferries are planned to be designed with the latest advanced clean marine technology. They would be ready for fully battery-powered, zero-emission operations.
