Modularized, Green and Future-Proof Propulsion

Published: 11/25/2021 Updated: 11/15/2023

STADT AS and SH-Defence have signed a cooperation agreement and integrate their technologies to increase modularisation of power generation and electric propulsion technologies.

With its patented and innovative propulsion technology, STADT meet environmental requirements, and can supply Zero-emission electric propulsion to Commercial and Naval vessels now.

To make sure that existing and new low and zero emission power-sources like battery, fuel-cells and alternative fuels can be installed, upgraded or exchanged, STADT clearly see that requirements for modularisation will be a vital design-criteria for future ships.

STADT Lean Propulsion® is efficient, reliant, noise-free and is designed for the lifetime of the vessel, and it can be interfaced with future and new power-sources of any kind.

SH Defence is the inventor and manufacturer of The Cube™ frame system. The Cube™ is a future-proof, flexible and cost-efficient solution that enables a quick and modular-based reconfiguration of vessels for many purposes by loading and unloading The Cube™ modules. The system is originally developed for naval vessels but will also be available for Commercial vessels. STADT will integrate its modular energy and electric propulsion system with The Cube™-system and be Cube™ Certified.

SH Defence and STADT are jointly engaged in a EU project to take part in design of future Naval-ships for EU-countries.

“We see that our cooperation with SH-defence and integration between STADT Lean Propulsion® and The Cube™-system will enable naval and commercial shipowners to “future-proof” their propulsion solutions. It will give flexibility in a way where power-sources and type of fuel easily can be exchanged or upgraded as zero-emission fuel-and power-sources further develops“, says Hallvard Slettevoll”, CEO in STADT and STADT NAVAL.

“SH Defence find the STADT Lean Propulsion® solution innovative, green and future proof. Future Naval ships will electrify their power and propulsion systems both as result of increased use of electric combat systems, multirole operations and to be able to meet future requirement for lower emission.  We are very excited to team up with STADT and together we will help both Naval and Commercial shipowners to reach their goals with modular and flexible components supported by The Cube™”, says Rene Bertelsen, CEO in SH-Defence.
