In 2024, DNV has quantified the gains that owners of liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers could expect to achieve using the new Dual Fuel, Electric+ (DFE+) solution developed by ABB and MAN Energy Solutions. Comprising MAN’s four-stroke 49/60DF dual fuel engine and ABB’s Dynamic AC power distribution and control system, the solution has been developed to overcome efficiency challenges that are specific to the vessel type.
ABB permanent magnet shaft generator technology enhances operational efficiency of vessels by utilizing the power from the shaft and main engine, resulting in better fuel economy compared to getting the power from high-speed, fuel-intensive auxiliary engines. In addition, the permanent magnet shaft generator is optimized for converter control, enabling better efficiency than either induction or electrically excited synchronous machines can offer at full and partial load
