Reliable Power Quality Solutions for the Marine & Maritime Industry

The marine and maritime sector is one of the most challenging fields in terms of operation. Therefore, there is no margin for error regarding power quality. ADM Engineering Inc. is here to aid with the power quality challenges of the marine sector. Our solutions not only guarantee reliability but also ascertain operational efficiency, compliance with international power quality standards and overall sustainability.

Challenges in Marine & Maritime Power Systems: The Pain Points

Due to the dynamic nature of maritime operations, power quality for ships and ports faces a variety of challenges such as:

Massive harmonic distortion caused due to a variety of electronic equipment, thereby impacting shipboard and dockside equipment with overheating or even damage.
Voltage fluctuations, also known as sags and swells are another common challenge. These can adversely affect critical navigation, communication and propulsion systems. Fortunately, both distortion and voltage fluctuations can be mitigated with appropriate marine and maritime harmonic filters.
Energy efficiency in marine and maritime industries is a major cause for concern. Harmonic distortions and fluctuations significantly reduce their overall efficiency and lead to more consumption of resources.
The guidelines for energy efficiency and sustainability in the maritime sector are rather stringent. For instance, all ships must calculate the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI), which is then used to evaluate their annual Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) rating. To adhere to these guidelines, the maritime sector employs variable frequency drives and corresponding marine and maritime harmonic filters.

Why Power Quality Matters in the Marine & Maritime Sectors

With the major challenges addressed in the previous section, this segment covers the importance of excellent power quality solutions in this sector. Here’s why they are considered vital:

By mitigating harmonic distortion and voltage fluctuations, problems like overheating and equipment damage are solved, ensuring a long lifespan for various components of ships, ports and dockyards.

By improving the power quality for ship and port operations, the overall energy efficiency increases drastically, ensuring lower operational costs.

Port operations devices and equipment onboard need to function reliably for optimal marine and maritime energy efficiency. Power quality solutions ensure this by negating any negative effects of harmonic distortion.

Global bodies such as the International Maritime Organization have stringent guidelines on energy efficiency, measured using metrics such as EEXI stated above. Power quality solutions ensure compliance with these guidelines that are required for effective and safe operations.

ADM’s Advanced Power Quality Solutions for Marine & Maritime Applications

Active Filters

Owing to the dynamic nature of the maritime sector, ADM Engineering Inc.’s active harmonic filters are ideal for handling the dynamic loads of shipboard and dockside equipment. Another advantage of active filters is their compact size, making them perfect for the marine sector, where space constraint is a major issue. Lastly, they ensure seamless operation for propulsion, navigation and cargo systems.

Hybrid Filters

When it comes to marine and maritime power quality solutions, few are as versatile as hybrid filters. They offer excellent harmonic solutions for port and ship power systems. Moreover, they guarantee reliable performance under the harsh conditions of the sector. Hybrid filters are also a cost-effective solution for maritime and port operational needs when compared to active filters.

Passive Filters

Passive harmonic filters from ADM Engineering Inc. offer a durable and robust solution for fixed-load applications on ships and dockside operations. These marine and maritime filters are also a great fit for generators, HVAC systems and port machinery.
