Glas Ocean Electric’s electric drive system brilliantly engineered in cooperation with British Aerospace Engineering is easily installed between a diesel power plant and a vessel’s propeller, allowing efficient use of the diesel to get on site, but then offering hours of use on electric power alone. Glas Ocean’s HyMarine electric drive is a simple but robust drop-in kit that significantly lowers fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while creating a more comfortable work environment by reducing the noise and vibration that diesel propulsion generates.
Glas Ocean’s conversion kit offers flexibility and redundancy. The original diesel engine is available as back up while electric propulsion radically reduces operational costs and creates a more comfortable environment for crew.
