Corvus Energy is to supply a 25 MWh battery system for the world’s first fully-electric offshore sea vessel, writes Nick Flaherty. The vessel is an electric Commissioning Service Operation Vessel (eCSOV) that will be constructed by Armon shipyard in Spain for UK-based shipowner Bibby Marine. Corvus Energy will supply its Blue Whale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with 25 MWh of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries.

Doosan Bobcat T7X

Doosan Bobcat is using electrification to not only reduce emissions in construction but also radically change the operation of compact track loaders, reports Will Gray Construction is not the first industry you think of when it comes to sustainability or electrification. Heavy, power-hungry machines do not immediately suggest the ideal platform for battery-powered performance, yet Bobcat has discovered the opposite, with its new T7X compact track loader outperforming its diesel-powered equivalent in almost every area.

Halevai electric boat

Halevai is on a mission to redefine the recreational marine market, combining an electric powertrain with a trimaran hull, reports Will Gray. It might look like a relatively ordinary recreational day cruiser, but in an industry that is traditionally as slow moving as a heavily loaded tanker, the design of Halevai’s model2050 – which pairs an innovative but highly standard electric powertrain with an ultra-efficient trimaran hull – places it firmly in the ‘ground breaker’ category.

HIL Testing

Nick Flaherty traces the line where digital models of components meet simulation to experience a vehicle before it is even built Virtual design methodologies are increasingly being adopted in the development of e-mobility platforms – combining digital models of components with simulation to create a digital twin of an entire vehicle that can be driven before it has even been built.

Fellten Charge Qube

Peter Donaldson investigates a containerised system that can charge multiple vehicles and doesn’t need a grid connection. Until the electric power grid is able to support fast charging for EVs everywhere, there is likely to always be a market for something like Fellten’s Charge Qube – a containerised system that stores energy in repurposed battery packs and can charge multiple vehicles simultaneously, with or without a connection to the grid.
