Electric Propulsion System
– Electric Propulsion System –
◆Electric Propulsion System engineering：
In cooperation with Taiyo Electric – Marine Engineering Department (Electric propulsion system, Inverter control system and Shaft power generation system)
◆Power management：
Permanent magnet synchronous PM motor and Inverter system
◆System Design and Procurement：
Sea Forrest Power Solutions (our Singapore-affiliated factory) conducted on-site testing by JCI Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Japan.
Centered around the MARINE ENGINEERING (M/E) TEAM established within Taiyo Electric in 2020, four companies – Taiyo Electric, Sanshin Electric Corporation, BOSMEC and Sea Forrest – have formed a one-team to System Design, Procurement and Commission propulsion systems for battery-powered vessels.
Battery-powered water bus (built in Ise City, Mie Prefecture)EV procurement and design: Taiyo Electric
Electric propulsion system: BOSMEC, Sea Forrest Power Solutions (manufactured by Danfoss Editron)
Tokyo, Nihonbashi to Ariake (Service to begin April 2026)
Project achievements in Japan：
・USV (Unmanned Surface Vehicle) for JMU Defense Systems
・EV (Electric Vehicle) battery-powered vessel for Kawasaki City Sanitation Bureau
・Battery-powered workboat for Keihin Dock
・Battery-powered water bus vessel for Mitsui Fudosan

◆Design Engineering of small Electric Propulsion vessels and Hybrid electric propulsion vessels
BH Global, BOS, Penguin International and other strategic partners have successfully delivered a 15m Launch Boat “Penguin Tenaga” in 2021 that is the joint development of Singapore’s first plug-in hybrid electric propulsion fast launch for the local maritime industry.
Main features:
Electric propulsion system: PMSR motor manufactured by Danfoss Editron, 46.0 kwh
LIB (Lithium-Ion battery) 42.6 kwh, Speed 5 kt with electric propulsion motor alone, maximum speed 24 kt when switched to electric propulsion motor + diesel engine.
The electrical converter control supports protocols such as CAN-open communication and SAE J1939 and displays its status.
