N2  - The shipping industry is facing increasing requirements to decrease its environmental footprints. This challenge<br>
is being addressed through the use of alternative fuels and adoption of novel energy sources in advanced<br>
power and propulsion systems. In this paper, an energy management approach is proposed to determine the optimal<br>
split between different energy sources of a vessel with hybrid power generation. The power and propulsion<br>
system of the vessel consists of a gas engine-generator set and a solid oxide fuel cell, both fed with liquefied<br>
natural gas, and a battery. Specific fuel consumption curves and transient capabilities of the engine and fuel cell<br>
are used to determine the optimal split and the battery is used to deal with the fast load transients during heavy<br>
operations and also providing power during low power demanding activities. The performance of the proposed<br>
approach is evaluated for a dredging vessel with a DC power and propulsion system and compared to a benchmark<br>
vessel powered by gas engine-generator sets only. The results indicate a 16.5% reduction in fuel consumption<br>
compared to a benchmark non-hybrid power system and conventional power management.
