Shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) records that it has actually gotten a kind authorization certification from DNV-GL for an aquatic lithium ion battery system, collectively established with sibling firm Samsung SDI. This is the very first such kind authorization to be released a South Korean firm
Samsung Heavy states the recently established lithium ion battery system,
is a green modern technology which, as the international need for eco-friendly innovations is more than ever before, there is an expanding pattern towards the application of battery systems as effective complementary power devices for massive industrial ships as well as overseas devices.
In line with the marketplace pattern, SHI coordinated with Samsung SDI, a worldwide battery manufaturer, to collectively create a lithium ion battery system guaranteeing high efficiency as well as security from numerous risks aboard, such as resonance, electro-magnetic waves, dirt, submergence, fire, and so on
SHI states the kind authorization qualification makes it possible for the firm to create a lithium ion battery system at a sensible cost in South Korea, “instead of using costly lithium ion battey systems predominantly supplied by large-scale equipment makers in Northern Europe where environment regulations are stricter.”
“The implementation of the recently developed modular battery system will provide high versatility to meet specific operational demands such as adjustment of battery capacity according to vessel size and power usage. Not only that, we will be able to achieve cost competitiveness by using a domestic system,” stated Shim, Yong-Lae, Vice President of SHI Ship & &Offshore Research Institute “By securing the battery system technology applicable to all types of vessels, SHI will take the advantageous position in the competition for orders for vessels.”
