A major milestone for the NEMOSHIP project : First deployment of digital platform on Ponant’s polar exploration vessel “Le Commandant Charcot”.
A major milestone for the NEMOSHIP project : First deployment of digital platform on Ponant’s polar exploration vessel “Le Commandant Charcot” Between May 14 and 24, 2025, the NEMOSHIP consortium successfully completed the first onboard deployment of its advanced digital platform aboard “Le Commandant Charcot”, Ponant’s LNG-electric hybrid polar exploration vessel. This mission marked a major step in validating the platform’s real-time energy management and predictive maintenance capabilities. Designed to optimize the vessel’s 4,5 MWh battery system, the platform monitored

A major step forward in hybrid system installation
A major step forward in hybrid system installation As part of Work Package 5 of the European NEMOSHIP project, significant progress has been made in the physical integration of the hybrid energy system on board the targeted offshore vessel. Preparing the site and initial installation phase The operations began with the preparation and opening of the tank designated to house the core components of the hybrid system. This crucial step enabled access to the space where both the power consumer skid and the battery container would be installed. Once the hybrid room was
