Innovations on board

Sailing open waters is an extraordinary task for every vessel. Not only the ship itself, but also its propulsion systems have to operate on the highest level of performance. The SISHIP SiPOD-M is the podded system of choice for vessels with demanding requirements in terms of open water performance and efficiency. The SISHIP SiPOD-M is equipped with an optimized strut which prevents vibrations and increases course stability. The hydrodynamic efficiency is even further increased thanks to the slim propeller hub and streamlined design.

Cruise ships and other large passenger vessels, mega yachts as well as special vessels with specific ice class requirements benefit in particular from the advantages of the SISHIP SiPOD-M. With such high efficiency and reliability, sailing open waters becomes a more secure task for crew and passengers.

• The world’s first battery-driven fishing cutter “Karoline” was developed by the Norwegian boat builder Selfa Arctic AS and is used by fishing company Øra AS.
• Siemens Energy supplied the propulsion technology, including the electric motor, the batteries, the generator, and the control unit for the entire system.
• The highly sustainable solution saves fuel, reduces maintenance costs as well as noise and vibrations, and is broadly applicable.

• ESVAGT Faraday is a offshore wind service operation vessel operated by ESVAGT.
• Siemens Energy installed the innovative BlueDrive Plus C electric propulsion system to benefit from low energy consuption.
• Very low fuel consuption independent of the load and the option to add on a battery system in the future.
