Hybrid Marine Power Systems
Integrated hybrid power systems for newbuild and retrofit vessels, combining propulsion, energy storage, power management and automation to reduce fuel use, emissions and dependence on conventional generation.
Solution Overview
Hybrid Power Engineered Around Vessel Operating Profiles
Hybrid marine power combines conventional generation with energy storage, electric propulsion and intelligent power management to match vessel power demand more efficiently across different operating modes.
MJR supports both newbuild and retrofit applications, analysing the vessel operating profile to size equipment around the required duty while managing integration complexity, class requirements and system interfaces.

Operational Benefits
Why Integrate Hybrid Power?
Hybrid systems allow power generation and stored energy to work together more effectively across standby, transit, manoeuvring and port operations.
- Reduced fuel consumption during low-load and standby operation.
- Reduced emissions through increased use of stored electrical energy.
- Spinning reserve and peak shaving to optimise generator operation.
- Improved vessel power resilience.
- Silent running in port with reduced noise and local emissions.
- Greater flexibility to integrate fully electric operating modes.
- Improved energy utilisation through regeneration and recovery.
- Remote monitoring, data collection and performance analysis.

Hybrid Power Management, Automation and Operator Interfaces
Hybrid vessel performance depends on the coordinated operation of generation, energy storage, power distribution, propulsion and automation. MJR integrates these systems through power-management and vessel-control architectures designed around the operating requirements of each vessel.
