Fuel Consumption Statistics
• MSC ships (FY13): 4.4 million bbls ($667 Million)
• Navy-wide (FY13): 23.1 million bbls ($3.5 Billion)
• DOD: largest single organizational consumer of petroleum in the world: (FY12 cost : $16.4 Billion)
“Fully burdened” cost of fuel is actually much higher due to storage, transportation, protection, delivery to the point of use, consumption and waste products.

International Requirement
Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan
N7
MSC’s Reasons for Active Participation
• Tactical operational capability improvement:• Longer range, more days on station, reduced
frequency of refueling• Cost savings:
• Tighter Budgets• Cost of energy is trending up long-term and very
volatile• Potentially fewer ships taken out of service
• Environmental good citizenship • Compliance with SECNAV/CNO policy and
international convention
N7
IMO Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) Objective
“…to establish a mechanism for a company and/or a ship to improve the energy efficiency of a ship’s operation.”(MEPC.1/Circ.68317 August 2009 )
SEEMP Goal: Globally reduce carbon emissions from ships through operational efficiencies.
N7
IMO SEEMP Purpose & SMS
(MEPC 63/23, 12 March 2012)
N7
MSC’s SEEMP
• MSC incorporated the SEEMP into its Safety Management System
• Procedure SMS 2.2-017-ALL• Part of ISM Audit, Effective Jan 2013 • International Energy Efficiency Certificate
(for MSC vessels, a Statement of Voluntary Compliance (SOVC))
N7
IMO Four Step Approach to SEEMP
MSC uses the four step approach for its SEEMPs; this is also known as Continuous Process Improvement
IMO recommends a four step approach to the SEEMP
N7
IMO Step 1: Planning
• Most crucial stage of the SEEMP• Two Phases
• Phase 1: Baseline • Determines current status of ship energy usage and
efficiency• Measures efficiency improvement from baseline
• Phase 2: Select most appropriate, effective Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) and implementable plan
N7
MSC Planning Approach
• Establish Energy Conservation Program• Identify N7 code responsible for program• Plan program management infrastructure• Plan for accepting and implementing Energy
Conservation Concepts (ECCs)• Plan to incorporate SEEMP concepts into SMS
procedure• Plan on implementing SEEMP in phases
• Phase 1: Baseline• Phase 2: Selecting Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs)
and implementation plan
Step 1: Create Plan for Implementing SEEMP
N7
MSC Phased Approach
• Phase 1: Baseline• Energy Audits (Five Levels) to determine current
status of ship energy usage and efficiency• Vessel Reporting methods to validate
improvements from baseline
• Phase 2: ECM Evaluation and Selection• Begins with Energy Conservation Concepts
(ECCs)• Crew ingenuity results in energy saving ECCs• Crew submits ECC Submission Form (QMS form
no. N0720-203.01C)
N7
IMO Step 2: Implementation
• IMO recommendations for implementation: • Define person(s) responsible for implementation• Define tasks required for implementation• Define the period for implementation and
evaluation• Keep records of implementation
N7
MSC Step 2: Implementation
• Establish Energy Conservation Program• Designate N7 code responsible for program• Identify ECMs and implement plan• Develop program for accepting and implementing
Energy Conservation Concepts (ECCs)• Incorporate SEEMP concepts into SMS procedure• Develop processes for evaluating ECCs• Identify quantifiable metrics to monitor savings• Conduct baseline study to establish current energy
consumption baseline• Implement program in phases• Implement Energy Awards Program
Step 2 - Phase 1: Implement SEEMP
N7
MSC Energy Conservation Program
• Evaluates and implements energy conservation initiatives
• Technology and operational improvements• Energy use tracking and reporting• Policy guidance and development• Training and awards program
• “ENCON” is now officially N726, the “Energy Resource Branch” of Engineering– Works directly with PM or Class
staff to coordinate initiativesT-AKE VFDs on Cargo Hold HVAC System
N7
MSC Step 2: Implementation
Step 2 – Phase 2: Implement ECMs • ECMs are implemented through SEEMP
Addendum and normal procedure: T-ALT, Class Notice, Safety Management Procedures Manual, Standing Orders…
• Class SEEMP Addendum can be accessed through SMS:
• Name of ECM• Background• Responsible Person• Procedure for implementation
N7
MSC SEEMP ECC Form
• QMS form # N0720-203.01C
• Operational and behavioral ECMs typically provide the best return on investment
• Approved ideas may be funded by the ENCON Program
• Potential awards eligibility!
Submit ideas to [email protected]
N7

Electrical Equipment Efficiency
• The percentage of heat loss represents the amount of energy lost to heat compared to the amount of energy used for work
• Lightly loaded electrical equipment has a higher percentage of energy lost to heat because less energy is used for work
• Fully loaded electrical equipment may have more heat loss in BTUs, but that loss represents a smaller percentage of the total energy transferred or used
• Transformers, Generators, and Motors all have an energy cost overhead comprised of heat loss and net inductive reactance
• Although inductive reactance varies somewhat with load, the percentage decreases with load

BioFouling
• Microfouling is the attachment of waterborne bacteria to the underwater surface.
• These bacteria form “slime”, which causes a relatively small drag penalty and is relatively easy to remove by scrubbing. (But still can add 5-10% fuel penalty.)
• The slime bacteria also provide a platform for other bio-colonizers to attach to. This eventually leads to growth of macro algae, invertebrates, and calcareous organisms.
• The macro-fouling causes a significantly greater drag penalty and takes much more effort to remove.

Motor Efficiency
• Motors with high efficiency have low energy consumption; 65% of industrial load consists of motors.
• IEC 60034-30 International Efficiency (IE) for single speed, 3 phase induction motors on the market fall into 4 potential classes:
• Standard (IE1)• High (IE2)• Premium (IE3)• Super Premium (IE4)
not yet available by all manufacturers
http://ngelmuelektro.wordpress.com/2011/06/24/motor-efficiency
NEMA (US) Standards are similar to IEC Standards
N7
Motor Upgrade vs Rewinding
• T-AKE Total Annual Auxiliary Motor Consumption: 30,000,000 kWh ($7,500,000 in fuel per ship)• Premium Motor over High Efficiency: 2% reduction
• Annual Energy Reduction: 600,000 kWh (per ship)• Annual Cost Savings: $150,000 per ship @ $0.25/kWh
• Premium Motor over Standard Efficiency: 4% reduction• Annual Reduction: 1,200,000 kWh (per ship)• Annual Cost Savings: $300,000 per ship @ $0.25/kWh
• Motors Rewound: 1% to 2% increase• Annual Increase: 300,000 to 600,000 kWh (per ship)• Annual Cost Increase: $75,000 to $150,000 (per ship)
Choosing to rewind standard motor versus replacing with a Premium Efficiency Motor could result in a cost increase of $375,000 to $450,000 (delta between potential savings and cost increase)

Motor Life Cycle Cost Breakdown
96%-98% of a motor’s life cycle cost is energy to operate (~64% of US electrical energy use)
97.3%
0.7% 2.0%Motor Life Cycle Cost
EnergyCostOneRewindInitialPurchase
Although the replacement cost is approximately three times the cost of a rewind (2.0% to 0.7%), the potential savings due to the increase in motor efficiency is significant, since 97.3% of the motor’s life cycle cost is associated with the electrical cost of operation
N7
Other Motor Related Costs: Speed
Always operate multi-speed motors at lowest possible speed that meets requirements
Example: Two-speed engine room fan on T-AKE
High Speed: 23.3 kW = $44,887 annual energy cost
Low Speed: 3.7 kW = $7,128 annual energy cost
$37,759 annual energy cost difference
84% power reduction; ~50% reduction in flow;no appreciable change in temperature
N7
Other Motor Related Costs: Drive Belts
• Cogged belts can reduce energy transmission losses by up to 2.5% because they are easier to bend.
• Bending occurs as belts transition from a straight run to the drive and driven wheels Energy Loss and Efficiency of Power Transmission Belts, Third World Energy
Engineering Congress, The Association of Energy Engineers
N7
Other Motor Related Costs: Heaters
• Approximate shore power cost on an ROS ship: $2,000 to $5,000/yr per ship
• Typically only 10°F to 15°F above ambient is required to prevent condensation
• Humidity highest in evening: secure during day peak hours?
• Not required in most cases; humidity/moisture will not damage motor if its insulation is in good condition

Auxiliaries: HVAC
• HVAC typically consumes most energy after main propulsion.• Costs around $1,000,000 - $4,000,000/year/ship• Common issues include:
• Heating and cooling at the same time
• Chill water temperature set too low (1%-2% increase in efficiency per degree increase; COP)
• IT space temperature set too low
• Thermostat misconceptions
• Air conditioned boundaries not set
• Lack of maintenance
N7
Heating and Cooling at the Same Time
Scenario 1: • Chill water cooled to 42°F• Air out of terminal feels cold• Crewmember turns heat to 90°F
Scenario 2: • Pilot House AC turned to 60°F• Outside air temperature 100°F• Bridge-wing doors left open
Scenario 3: • Outside air temperature 20°F• Air preheater turned on• HVAC system cools air to 50°F• Crewmember sets thermostat to

Ideal IT Space Temperature
• It takes less kW to drop the Chill Water 25°F from 90°F to 65°F than 65°F to 40°F because the compressor must work harder at lower suction pressures.
• Ideal IT space temp is around 73°F and 45% humidity

Thermostat Misconceptions
• If you want to raise the temperature from 70°F to 72°F, setting the thermostat to 90°F will make it get there quicker
• If you want to lower the temperature from 75°F to 72°F, setting the thermostat to 50 will make it get there quicker
• 72°F will always feel the same, regardless of the time of year or level of humidity

Compressed Air Leaks and Pressure
• Controls: loading/unloading, stop/start functions• Find and fix leaks:
• Cumulative leaks of ¼” circular opening = $40,000/yrin energy cost
• Operate at minimum required pressures: • 10 PSI increase = 5% increase in energy ($4,500/yr)
• Minimize blow down of receivers/tanks with automatic level operated condensate traps protected by Y-strainers
• Additional capacity best achieved by adding receivers, not compressors, where air is required.
N7
Compressed Air Dryers
• Only dry compressed air to the temperature required• Rule of thumb: set dry air to dew point 18°F below lowest
ambient air temperature• For most engine room conditions: dew point of 35°F to
38°F adequate• Most MSC ships have regenerative air dryers:
• Can consume 15% of air being dried during regenerativeprocess
• Only provide dry compressed air to equipment that must have it (typically only control air, not service air)

Lighting Energy Savings
The most important and easiest way to save energy in lighting systems is to TURN THEM OFF.
• Cargo Hold Lighting• Adding local switches• Splitting lighting circuits
• Motion Activated Lighting• Good for small, infrequently
visited spaces• Splitting Existing Lighting Circuits
• Allows reducing number of active lights in a single space
• Changing Culture• Becoming accustomed to
turning off lights

Higher Efficiency Lighting Options
• Fluorescent bulbs and ballasts:• T12 bulbs and ballasts
phased out• Match ballast to bulbs• Specs for bulbs and ballast
• LED (Light Emitting Diode type):• New technology• Life and lumen output
improved• Cost decreasing• Ensure quality LED used• Thermal management of LED
MSC is implementing LED replacements for linear fluorescent tubes and ballasts.

Lighting Spectrum
• SCOTOPIC VISION - The scientific term for human visual perception in low light (night vision). Directed by rod cells in the human eye.
• PHOTOPIC VISION - The scientific term for human color vision under normal conditions during the day. Directed by cone cells in the human eye.
• MESOPIC VISION - The scientific term for the combination between Photopic and Scotopic vision, taking into account the total sensitivity of the rod cells in the eye for the blue range, with the color perception of the cone cells.

Retrocommissioning
• Retrocommissioning: A systematic process to improve an existing system's performance by identifying operational improvements that will increase comfort and save energy
• Includes a review of ship operating policy and procedures, checkoff sheets, standing orders etc. for efficiency considerations
• Process requires review of performance metrics, ECC applicability to other systems, and staying abreast of technological and operational advancements in related industries

What drives propulsion energy consumption?• Fuel rate is largely proportional to power output of prime
mover(s). (With some load-dependent BSFC variation.)• Propulsion power required is proportional to speed,
resistance, and drive train efficiency:
P V x Rtotal ÷ ηhull and drive train• In the slow to moderate speed range, the frictional component
of resistance increases with the square of speed. However the wave-making component increases faster than that. And in moderate speed range the overall efficiency of the hull and drive train vary only slightly with speed. So that means:
P V3.2-3.8 (depending on hullform)
