D3.5. ESS 2 KESS Kinetic Energy Storage System (Flywheel) for marine applications. Summary of the results achieved

This deliverable summarises the results achieved in WP3 for the development of the POSEIDON kinetic energy storage system (KESS) for marine applications. Within the Horizon Europe POSEIDON project, WP3 addressed the design, engineering, manufacturing and laboratory validation of a marinized flywheel-based storage module intended for fast-response services in waterborne transport. The work resulted in an integrated demonstrator based on a slow-flywheel architecture, specifically adapted to ship-motion constraints, onboard integration requirements and safety-by-design principles.

D6.1 Regulation: State of the art and gaps

One alternative to the conventional mechanical propulsion arrangement is an electric propulsion system, which allows for the propulsion requirements of the vessel to be provided by an electric distribution system, driving electric propulsion motors or thrusters and optimizing its efficiency by means of Energy Storage Systems. Hybrid and all-electric power systems offer the opportunity to improve safety, reliability, operational efficiency, fuel consumption, and environmental footprint. They may extend the equipment maintenance intervals when compared to conventional mechanical power systems, supporting therefore Autonomous operations.

D6.2 HAZID study

A HAZID (Hazard Identification) is essential for the POSEIDON project to ensure the safetyand regulatory compliance of the innovative ESS. The HAZID process helps identify potential hazards early in the project lifecycle, allowing for timely corrective actions and comprehensive risk management. This is crucial for addressing safety concerns, regulatory requirements, and long-term risks associated with the deployment of these advanced energy storage systems in maritime settings.

D6.3 Risk assessment

The POSEIDON project aims to demonstrate the applicability of three innovative fast-response energy storage systems (ESS) for waterborne transport: supercapacitors, flywheels, and magnetic energy storage systems. The project focuses on their integration onboard ships to improve safety, energy efficiency, and cost competitiveness in maritime operations.
A risk assessment is essential to ensure the safety and regulatory compliance of these innovative ESS.

D8.6. POSEIDON website operational

This report documents the development and ongoing optimisation of the project’s official website. Initially launched in March 2024, the website serves as a platform to share public information and project updates. Following its initial release, the team decided to redesign and enhance its content and layout for improved usability and impact. Key sections, such as the home page, objectives, work plan, and partners, are being refined. The updated website incorporates performance monitoring tools, such as Google Site Kit, to ensure continuous improvement and alignment with dissemination goals.
