New SHaPoLi solution from Hoppe Marine based on the proven MAIHAK Shaft Power Meter

To meet the target of reducing greenhouse gases in shipping by 40% by 2030, the IMO has created the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI), which will be mandatory for ships of 400 GT and above from 2023. This index maps the savings achieved through various ship-side measures such as limiting main engine power or redesigning the propeller. Limiting engine power has the greatest impact on reducing emissions!

For this reason, Hoppe’s shaft power limitation solution MAIHAK-SHaPoLi offers the best opportunity to make a significant contribution to achieving environmental targets! Especially in comparison to direct engine power limitation (EPL), this system offers many safety-relevant advantages and also includes the possibility for further power optimisation:

• The full engine power can still be used without limitation, which represents a considerable safety gain in critical situations.
• In addition to power measurement, our system also provides automatic event and data recording and thus the basis for further data analysis on shore.
• The MAIHAK-SHaPoLi is significantly more cost-effective than solutions that limit engine power mechanically (EPL).
• Easy and fast to install
• All relevant MAIHAK-SHaPoLi components are type-approved
