ENERGY SAVING SOLUTIONS FOR CRANES AND LIFTING EQUIPMENT
OUR OFFER
ENERGY REGENERATION
-
When cargo is lowered, Kinetic recovers wasted potential energy and stores it
-
When cargo is lifted, Kinetic releases energy to power the crane
-
Kinetic recovers ~40% of energy when cargo is moved horizontally and ~90% when a ship is unloaded
-
Additionally, reduced energy demand allows engines and generators to be downsized further reducing environmental impact
PEAK SHAVING
-
Multiple cranes operating in parallel put significant stress on the local grid and cause dangerous frequency and voltage fluctuations
-
Kinetic accumulates energy during low demand hours to provide peak power to the grid when needed
-
Kinetic automatically regulates frequency and voltage, maintaining them within the required range thus mitigating the risks of blackouts and protecting the machinery
RENEWABLES INTEGRATION
-
Energy supply from renewable sources is often intermittent and unreliable. Kinetic provides ancillary services that improve the quality and stability of energy supply
-
Kinetic automatically controls and regulates frequency and voltage
-
Kinetic smoothes the energy output and ensures a stable supply
-
Kinetic controls the ramp rate and absorbs sudden peaks in generation
OTHER BENEFITS
Affordable and reliable service over a longer time
-
Unlimited number of 100% DOD cycles without degradation
-
Long service life of more than 25 years
-
Simple and low-cost maintenance
-
Wide operating temperature range from -40 ° C to +80 °C
-
Complete operational safety, including explosion- and burst-proof (no need for protective casing)
-
Environmentally friendly and recyclable, manufactured using non-hazardous materials
Сompatible with most of the modern lifting/loading equipment and could be easily integrated into the infrastructure:
-
Compatible with most cranes: STS, RTG, RMG, Portal, Mobile
-
Connects to a crane via a power cable and standard industrial interfaces, no mechanical connection to a crane's motor is required
-
Requires only minor software adjustments and no mechanical modifications to a crane
-
Due to compact size and lightweight could be located nearby in a separate enclosure or mounted on a crane
-
Easily integrated with both isolated and externally connected power networks
