What Are Marine Power Systems?

A marine power system is all the equipment that provides propulsion and electrical power for a vessel, including the engine. These components are designed to deliver reliable performance even under the most challenging conditions of the marine environment.

Types of Marine Power Systems and Their Applications

Marine engines and their connected components are crucial for keeping a vessel moving and powering the instruments that support its safe and efficient navigation. There are several types of marine power systems designed for different vessels and applications:

• Propulsion engines: These engines are used to drive the propellers and other devices that move the vessel through the water. Cat® marine engines are available in various sizes and power ratings for different applications. Commercial vessels use specialized engines for top productivity under demanding working conditions.
• Marine generator sets: These systems supply electrical power for onboard needs like lighting, heating and cooling. They provide dependable power under extreme conditions and often serve as a backup in case of primary power malfunction. Having an emergency power supply at sea is often crucial to maintaining safe operation and keeping electronics and communication systems running if the primary source fails.
• Auxiliary engines: Secondary engines are ideal for vessels with unique requirements. For example, a fishing boat with a blast freezer will need power to preserve its catch. An auxiliary engine is perfect for demanding systems such as pumps, winches and thrusters. 

If you're unsure of which marine power system works better for your application, speak to our professionals. We'll be happy to assist you in finding the solution that fits your requirements and budget.
