Today, we shipped the battery container for the Gearbulk project to Shanghai, China.
The battery container has completed the Factory Acceptance Test at PSW, and is ready to enter the next project phase.
COSCO Shipyard will install the battery container system onboard the general c3argo vessel EMU Arrow.
Gearbulk replaces one of the old gantry cranes onboard EMU Arrow with a new and more efficient #electric jib crane. While three diesel-driven engines powered the old gantry crane, the new jib crane can be operated by only one auxiliary engine combined with the #battery.
