Thrustmaster of Texas System / Package
Hybrid Propulsion Systems
Integrated diesel/battery hybrid propulsion and power control systems from Thrustmaster, tailored to vehicle and passenger ferries and other inland and coastal vessels.
Description
Thrustmaster Hybrid Propulsion Systems are integrated power and propulsion packages, designed and built by Thrustmaster, that continuously select the most efficient energy source and deliver it to the load. Each system is tailored to the vessel size, speed, transit route and operational profile, with Thrustmaster supplying and integrating all components as a single source.
Benefits
- Lower exhaust gas emissions and reduced fuel consumption
- Lower structure-borne and airborne noise and reduced structural vibration
- Simplified mechanical systems, less maintenance and longer maintenance intervals
- Remote performance monitoring
- Lower overall OPEX and improved passenger comfort
