Contemporary Amperex Electric Vessel (CAEV), a subsidiary of Chinese battery giant CATL, has launched a “zero-carbon shipping and integrated smart port solution,” called Ship-Shore-Cloud.
CATL has delivered nearly 900 electric ships, setting multiple records, and has learned that electric ships are not simply adaptation of land-based technologies. “Their development needs to face the challenges of harsh operating environments such as high humidity, high salt spray, long-duration voyages, and high power requirements,” the company explains.
In traditional ship operations, power supply, energy replenishment and maintenance services are often provided by separate suppliers. The resulting coordination challenges and ambiguous accountability represent “the core bottleneck restricting the large-scale development of zero-carbon shipping,” according to CATL.
To address these challenges, CATL has launched its Ship-Shore-Cloud solution, which integrates everything from the ship’s on-board power system and shore-based energy replenishment network to cloud-based intelligent management.
On the ship side, the system integrates battery systems, power systems and intelligent navigation systems to ensure the stable long-distance operation of ships. On the shore side, it separates the management of ships and batteries through a charging and battery-swapping network. In the cloud, enabled by the intelligent management platform Yunfan and the intelligent navigation system Beichen, ships can be remotely monitored, scheduled and optimized.
