Fjord Maritime is a technical supplier to the aquaculture industry.

We offer cost-effective services and products. Our complementary background and over 40 years of experience in the aquaculture industry give us the ability to quickly familiarize ourselves with the customer’s situation. Although the company is relatively new, the people behind it are not new to the industry. We have well-established networks, and proven ability in the aquaculture industry.

Fjord Hybrid reduces fuel consumption in fish farms by up to 60 per cent. The solution automates power supply and optimises use of generators, batteries, electrical drives, and control systems.

As the aquaculture industry grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to power fish farms in a sustainable manner. Diesel generators create local sea and air pollution as well as greenhouse gas emissions. On top of these negative environmental impacts, fuel costs are on the rise and comprise a substantial part of expenses for aquaculture operators.

FJORD HYBRID® uses the spare capacity left on the generator to charge the batteries while the generator feeds the rest of the barge with electricity. When the batteries are fully charged, the generator stops and FJORD HYBRID® operates the system and the grid is solely run on batteries.

The energy demand through a production has large variations and fluctuations. The most energy-intensive periods constitute a very small percentage in total, during a production, but it is that period that is the foundation and design criteria when sizing the diesel generators. Meaning, that the user ends up with an oversized diesel generator, giving a low efficiency and minimum kW. pr. litre of diesel.

When purchasing and installing the FJORD HYBRID®, the running time of the diesel generator is reduced to a minimum. Handling the energy peaks and different phases in the production, is no problem for the FJORD HYBRID.
