Imtech Marine: The Green Hybrid Tug

摘要

Imtech Marine understands the demand to keep the planet livable. With the Zero Emission Ships initiative Imtech Marine will provide solutions to save energy, reduce CO_2 emissions and to improve environmental comfort. One of the solutions Imtech Marine can offer is the Green Hybrid Propulsion System. Incorporated into a tugboat it will provide a Green Hybrid Tug that will be environmentally friendly, energy efficient and powerful when needed. A tugboat has a very wide range of power demands for different operational tasks. It needs full power when towing or pushing another ship. When sailing high speeds, a large amount of power is needed. But most of the operational time the tugboat will be maneuvering or sailing at low speeds.
