Resumen
In Korea, fishing boats account for 65,452 out of 71,174 coastal ships, and aging ships are a leading cause of environmental problems and economic loss. To solve this problem, the government has enacted a policy to promote the development and distribution of environmental vessels. Electric propulsion systems and hybrid systems are suggested as alternatives. However, to study whether this hybrid system is environmentally friendly, a system for measuring the performance of conventional diesel-powered ships was developed and measured. A case study applying the battery hybrid system was analyzed through a Matlab/Simulink simulation, and the effect of reducing the carbon dioxide emissions by 7.6% was verified. In addition, comparing with a case where the load-sharing optimal control was introduced, we proved that the carbon dioxide reduction with the controller was 10.7%. By applying the results of this study to various countries with different fuel production processes through the LCA technique, it was confirmed that the battery hybrid system is eco-friendly from the energy production stage, rather than unconditionally, according to the national power production method. Additional research is needed to reflect the aging trend of the entire fleet and to create a detailed category classification through future research.
