Connecting systems, powering sustainability: Alewijnse leads the way
As part of its theme #WeConnectSustainability, the company will be featuring the latest trends in electrical engineering and automation. These will be vital to the preservation of our maritime ecosystem by combating climate change through digital transformation and the maritime energy transition.
Vision for a sustainable world
The maritime sector is an international industry that is evolving rapidly. Challenges such as climate change and globalisation are having a significant impact, and new technologies are changing the way companies work. Other developments are following each other in rapid succession. As a systems integrator, Alewijnse values working with customers and partners who share the same vision of a sustainable world. Together they can combine their knowledge and step into the future so that shipbuilders, owners and crew can reap the benefits of the latest high-end systems and technologies.
"A great example of the success of this approach is the OceanXplorer project,” says Martin Terpstra, Alewijnse segment manager for Dredging, Offshore and Transport. “The ship, formerly known as Alucia2, underwent an extensive refit at Damen Shiprepair Rotterdam. Because the client OceanX believes that the ocean is our most important and least explored natural resource, its team set out to create a state-of-the-art science and media vessel by transforming a former oil storage ship into a unique platform for exploration, science, and storytelling. Alewijnse was responsible for the complete electrical system integration on board what is today the most advanced exploration vessel in the world."
Contributing to a greener future
"We see that sustainability is becoming an increasingly important aspect for a growing number of our refits, as well as in newbuild ships,” continues Terpstra. “More and more vessels are using alternative fuels such as hydrogen, methanol and LNG. Additionally, energy conversion systems and electric propulsion systems are becoming increasingly important. At Alewijnse we offer advanced hybrid and power solutions that we are proud of and that allow us to play our part in contributing to a greener future and more sustainable operations."
Visitors to the SMM exhibition can explore these innovative sustainable technologies by attending the Alewijnse presentation, ‘Modelling and Digital Twins Powering the Energy Transition’. Presented by Mischa Habermehl, the event will take place on Thursday, September 5th from 1:30 to 1:40 PM at the Cruise and Ferry Stage in Hall B5.
