Marine variable frequency drives industry is set to witness substantial growth on account of ongoing digitalization, smart shipping and increasing focus on energy efficiency. These units offer compatibility with digital control systems and IoT platforms enables real-time monitoring and data analysis, improves predictive maintenance and operational optimization. For instance, in May 2023, ABB has provided its ACS880 Multidrives for the shore power units of Hareid Group. These shore connections significantly reduce emissions, noise, and vibrations, as vessels no longer need to operate their auxiliary engines and generators. Furthermore, stringent emission regulations from authorities including International Maritime Organization to reduce carbon emissions along with introduction of enhanced technological systems will positively influence the industry outlook.
