โ–ถSummary

NEMOSHIP ambition is to contribute to the European Partnership โ€œZero Emission Waterborne Transport (ZEWT)โ€ objectives by providing new deployable technological solutions needed for all main types of waterborne transport to reach a โ€œnet zero emissionโ€ by 2050.To reach this goal, NEMOSHIP will:- develop (i) a modular and standardised battery energy storage solution enabling to exploit heterogeneous storage units and (ii) a cloud-based digital platform enabling a data-driven optimal and safe exploitation,- demonstrate these innovations at TRL 7 maturity for hybrid ships and their adaptability for full-electric ships thanks to: (i) a retrofitted hybrid offshore vessel (hybrid diesel/electric after NEMOSHIP BESS installation), (ii) a newly designed hybrid cruise vessel (LNG/electric propulsion) and (iii) a semi-virtual demonstration for two additional full-electric vessels such as ferries and short-sea shipping.All results will be built upon a treasure chest of 18 years of ESS operation data.Thanks to a very ambitious exploitation plan, accompanied by very large dissemination actions, the NEMOSHIP consortium estimates that these innovations will reach the following impacts by 2030: (i) electrification of about 7% of the EU fleet; (ii) generate a potential revenue of โ‚ฌ300M thanks to the sales of the NEMOSHIP products and services; (iii) reduce EU maritime GHG emissions by 30% compared to business as usual (BAU) scenario; and (iv) create at least 260 direct jobs (over 1000 indirect).The NEMOSHIP consortium is composed of 11 partners (3 RTO, 1 SME, 7 large companies) and covers the whole value chain, from research-oriented partners and dissemination and exploitation specialists to software developers, energy system designers, integration partners, naval architects and end-users.
