Reshaping the Future
Welcome to the latest issue of Insights, bringing you the latest updates and innovations from Kongsberg Maritime. As we navigate through an era of rapid technological advancements, I am pleased to share our most recent developments with a focus on electrification.
Electrification is not just a trend; it’s a transformative movement reshaping the future of our industry. At Kongsberg Maritime, we are proud to be at the forefront of this change, driving innovation and transforming our customers’ operations.
You can read about several groundbreaking projects, such as the
battery-operated ferries on a busy commuter route in Norway. These ferries
have successfully completed more than 20,000 automated operations using
our advanced technology, enabling smart manoeuvring and efficient use of
battery power.
We also visited the new hybrid Meta 7 tug operating in South Korea, which
can operate on batteries in the busy port of Busan. Additionally, we provide
an in-depth look at how electrification is one of the key drivers in shaping
our product development, in this case with advanced electric winches and
pod propulsion.
The world is embracing and demanding greener energy, and we reveal our
latest solutions to the floating offshore wind market. There will be large-scale
arrays of floating turbines in the years to come, and we’ve developed smart and
safe ways to transport, anchor and hook-up these towering structures, drawing
on decades of expertise and our pioneering approach to offshore energy.
As your trusted energy transition partner, we understand the complexities of adopting greener technologies. Our mission is to deliver solutions that meet regulatory requirements, enhance operations, and promote environmental stewardship.
On a personal note, I recently visited the first two of Höegh Autoliners’ new Aurora Class ships. Seeing our technology support their net-zero ambitions was a truly rewarding experience.
I hope you find this issue of Insights both informative and inspiring.
