DAY 1: AKA Energy Systems demonstrates its zero-emission generator
AKA Energy Systems

AKA Energy Systems is demonstrating its zero-emission generator at Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo North America. The equipment has been designed to curb marine vessel pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in light of increasingly strict emissions regulations worldwide.

The generator addresses the challenge by offering in-port shore power connectivity with frequency conversion to charge a customizable lithium-ion battery energy storage system. This ESS reportedly meets the power requirements of berthed vessels without having to run their main engines or generators.

The zero-emission generator also supports N+1 redundancy requirements for higher-risk operations without the need to run additional rotating reserves. The system can peak shave and peak shift to optimize the power system and cut fuel and maintenance costs while reducing emissions. It includes a containerized solution with integrated environmental controls and ship-to-shore power connection/conversion capabilities, with a plug-and-play architecture.
