Long-distance operations with lower emissions

More than 80 percent of global trade by volume is transported at sea. Merchant vessels operate on long routes and strict schedules, requiring dependable power systems that reduce emissions and meet increasingly strict environmental regulations. Fuel efficiency has a major impact on operational costs, while downtime is costly since every hour out of service can disrupt supply chains and increase expenses for operators.

Battery systems for merchant ships must deliver high power for peak shaving, spinning reserve, and port emission reduction, while recharging efficiently from onboard generators or shore power with minimal degradation. They need to perform consistently through thousands of cycles over long service intervals and under tough environmental conditions such as heat, cold, vibration, and salt exposure.

The safest choice

Echandia’s LTO battery systems handle high power safely, recharge quickly, and maintain performance over many years. The chemistry is extremely stable and resistant to thermal runaway, which is crucial for ships carrying large crews and heavy cargo. The systems perform reliably in extreme temperatures and tolerate partial charging, making them a safe and dependable choice for hybrid propulsion and emissions compliance.
