UCK series Ultracapacitor
Benefits and motivation
of ship electrification
- Reduced emissions (regulation & policy requirements)
- Reduced fuel consumption (more efficient & economical)
- Less noise and vibration
- Increased flexibility in ship space arrangement
- No oily film in the water (pure electric ship)
- Reduced maintenance requirements
Application Example: Hybrid UC-based Electric Ferry
New generation product of Aowei
hybrid UC could be a better choice.
- Public transportation with a fixed route like city bus, tram, subway.
- Charging stations can be installed along the route, where ferry only needs to carry the energy between two charging stations, so that the cost, size and weight of ESS can be dramatically reduced.
- UC can be fully charged only in several minutes during loading passengers and cars.
- Ship is not so sensitive to the weight and volume of energy storage system.
- Stable operation performance, long life cycles and low maintenance requirement.

Application Example : Pure Electric Ferry
Changheng Electric Ferry Line
Ferry line:
Changheng line is the only public transportation way between Hengsha island and Changsha
island. The two islands are located at the Yangtze River estuary.
The Yangtze River:
The longest river in Asia and third longest worldwide (6300 km)
maritime.car.tex5
Changxin island has 120000 residents, and Hengsha island has 40000 residents.
Direct line length:
1.1 km
Time to across the river:
10 minutes
Operation time:
06:15 – 20: 15, interval 45 minutes.
AOWEI Ultracapacitor Technology
Automatic charging system
- The technology of automatic charging system is developed for pure electric ferry.
- Rail guided vehicle (RGV) moves automatically nearing the plug-in position of ferry.
- Automatic charging machine aims itself to the socket.
- The charging machine can be automatically disconnected after charged.
