Customer requirements
Baudouin pure marine engines are known worldwide for their reliability and durability in a challenging marine environment. We are committed to designing marine powertrains that reduce exhaust emissions and control fuel consumption at any running cycle. In synergy with our sister companies, Baudouin experts have developed environmentally-conscious hybrid systems to answer complex customer requirements.
Partnership With Experts
Being part of the Weichai group allows Baudouin to leverage technological expertise with our sister company Aradex and other marine hybrid specialists, to be able to provide a fully integrated hybrid solution for marine applications. Together, we offer our marine customers, tailored systems that perfectly match their requirements.
Hybrid Configuration
Series Hybrid with Genset
Utilizing onboard electrical generation systems, batteries can be charged and then discharged through onboard electrical motors to allow for low noise and zero-emissions operation. Efficiency improvements through optimal loading of the generators can improve fuel consumption, service costs, and exhaust emissions allowing reduced running hours and full electric operation.
Parallel Hybrid with inline Electric Motor
A diesel engine is connected via a clutch and gearbox to the propeller in a standard propulsion system. Also connected in parallel to the gearbox is an electric motor and battery pack, enabling the system to switch between an electric drive or a standard diesel motor. During operation the engine can be used to recharge the batteries which are then discharged to improve overall system efficiency, reducing fuel consumption and allowing for zero-emissions running.
