Solar Panel Installation
Turnkey solar PV installation for vessels, providing reliable and sustainable auxiliary electrical energy at sea.
Engineering Case Study
How SOI engineered practical, high-reliability automation solutions for demanding environments.
The Challenge
Client needed round-the-clock autonomous energy for communications and navigational instruments while anchored, avoiding continuous reliance on fuel-hungry auxiliary diesel generators.
Engineering Solution
Installed saltwater-resistant marine monocrystalline solar arrays on the upper deck canopy, interfaced with Smart MPPT Charge Controllers, pure-sine wave hybrid inverters, and high-density LiFePO4 battery banks.
Results & Impact
Decreased auxiliary fuel consumption by 40% during anchor standby, eliminated engine noise pollution overnight, and drastically reduced vessel operational carbon footprint.
Key Engineering Highlights
- High Efficiency Panels: Monocrystalline cells optimized for marine weather.
- Seamless Integration: Interfaced seamlessly with onboard hybrid inverters.
