First Net-Zero Subsea Construction Vessel
Corvus Energy has been selected by HAF Power Solutions (HPS) to supply energy storage systems (ESS) for the innovative Energy Subsea Construction Vessel (ESCV) to be built for shipowner REM Offshore.
REM Offshore is one of the main players in the maritime cluster in Norway with a modern fleet of 19 vessels for offshore, offshore wind and subsea operations.
The new ESCV is of ST-245 design and will be the first vessel to perform heavy construction work in both offshore wind and subsea with net-zero emissions. The vessel will be equipped with dual-fuel methanol engines and a 1.7-MW battery system. The batteries will be used for spinning reserve and peak shaving, as well as to regenerate power from the operation of offshore lifting equipment on board the vessel.
The Corvus ESS is scheduled for delivery during the first half of 2026, and the vessel will go in into operation in the second half of 2026.
The contract also includes an option for equipment deliveries for a second vessel.
