Title:
SHIP
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/057847
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a ship that reduces the total amount of fossil fuels and other energy sources required by the entire ship, not only when berthing, but even when sailing, thereby saving energy. The ship (1) has a plurality of subsystems (10) constructed by dividing a network of power supply lines (3) and a network of signal lines (4) into groups. The subsystems (10) consist of at least two subsystems among a bridge subsystem (10a) corresponding to equipment on the bridge; a propulsion subsystem (10b) corresponding to propulsion equipment in an engine room; a deck subsystem (10c) corresponding to equipment installed on a deck; a ballast cargo subsystem (10d) corresponding to equipment for ballasting and equipment installed in a hold; and an information processing subsystem (10e) corresponding to communication equipment. The subsystems (10) each have a storage battery (5) and a smart meter (6), and each is linked to a microgrid monitoring and control system (2). The microgrid monitoring and control system (2) detects the amount of power consumed by the plurality of subsystems (10), and controls the transfer of power between the subsystems.
