MHI Develops Hybrid Turbocharger to Generate Electricity Utilizing Exhaust Gas from Marine Engines

Green Car Congress

(MHI) has developed a generator-integrated hybrid turbocharger for marine propulsion diesel engines which utilizes engine exhaust gas not only to drive the turbocharger but also to generate electricity. The MET83MAG is capable of supplying all electric power necessary during normal sea going. Click to enlarge.

Stena Line seeking novel approaches to recover energy from exhaust gases from ship engines

Green Car Congress

Stena Line is seeking novel, cost-effective approaches to recover energy from exhaust gases from ship engines and to transform it into a more useful energy form (e.g., electricity to supply hotel loads on board the ship). These energy losses are primarily radiant heat loss and the sensible heat of exhaust gases.

TECO 2030 aims to build hydrogen fuel cell gigafactory in Norway

Green Car Congress

We are optimizing fuel cells from the bottom up for heavy-duty marine use. TECO 2030 plans to deliver a marine hydrogen solution that is more efficient, compact and durable than fuel cells based on modified automotive stacks. Total greenhouse gas emissions are to be reduced by at least 50% by 2050.

Alfa Laval introduces E-PowerPack ORC waste heat recovery system for ships

Green Car Congress

Able to convert waste heat directly into electrical power, the E-PowerPack uses Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology to reduce ship fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. Where heat pumps use electrical power to create thermal energy for various purposes, an ORC system uses heat energy to generate electricity. Basic ORC concept.

bp begins shipping LNG from Mozambique’s first LNG project and first FLNG platform

Green Car Congress

bp has successfully loaded the first LNG cargo from Mozambique’s offshore Coral Sul FLNG (floating liquefied natural gas) facility, the country’s first LNG project and first floating LNG facility deployed in the ultra-deep waters of the African continent. FLNG vessels are floating LNG production, storage and offloading units.

Element 1, CO-WIN road testing medium-duty fuel cell truck with onboard methanol-based hydrogen generation

Green Car Congress

The units uses two input streams (methanol/water mix and combustion air) and produces two output streams (product H 2 and combustion exhaust). Fuel cell vehicles typically require a pure grade of hydrogen in order to produce the electricity needed for propulsion. Source: e1. —Dave Edlund, e1 CEO.
