Albion Marine Alternative Marine Power Solutions for new builds and retrofits

During the berthing period, the ship's main engine is turned off. However, the ship must continue operating its auxiliary engines and boilers to generate electricity for essential tasks such as communication, lighting, heating, cooling, ventilation, and onboard devices. Typically, this electricity is produced by generators (auxiliary engines) through the combustion of marine fuels, resulting in air emissions that are harmful to the environment, air quality, and human health.

Alternate Marine Power AMP is a beneficial solution to reduce ship-caused emissions considerably. Alternate Marine Power, or AMP is an anti-pollution measure; AMP is used when the ship is halting at a port so that the ship's engines (working on diesel) do not need to be used unnecessarily. Ships can shut down the auxiliary engine at berths and use the required power from the national grid to reduce air emissions. This technology is known as 'alternative maritime power'  It's beneficial for ship operators to turn towards alternate marine power solutions to help reduce the emissions from ships by a significant margin. AMP can considerably decrease SO2, NOx, PM, CO, VOC, CO2, N2 O, and CH4 emissions. Further, the system eliminates noise and vibration from ships in the port area. Because of less emissions and noise, AMP affects air quality and human health.
