MS Canoline.
8.4 MWh, fully electric.
World's first fully electric self-discharging bulk carrier. Complete propulsion and PEMS system delivered by MHS, from survey and assessment through integration to digital after-service. Completion June 2026.
A landmark project.
One of the largest marine battery installations for a cargo vessel of this type.
Self-discharging bulk carrier
Designed for coastal cargo operations with integrated self-discharging equipment.
Fully electric
Zero-emission operation on battery power. Shore charging at port.
June 2026
Currently under installation. Full system commissioning and sea trials.
Full system responsibility.
MHS delivers the complete propulsion system for MS Canoline. One contract, one point of contact, full responsibility from survey to operation.
Propulsion System
Complete electric propulsion including power conversion, motor drives, and propulsion control. Lab-tested and commissioned on board.
Miira Onboard PEMS
Power and Energy Management System installed on the bridge. Real-time efficiency monitoring and decision support for the crew.
Miira Training
Vessel-specific training videos for crew onboarding and ongoing competence. Accessible through miira.cloud.
From simulation to operation.
The project started with a pre-project survey and vessel assessment to define the scope and confirm the fully electric concept. MHS then took full responsibility for system integration, from battery and power conversion through propulsion control and shore connection. After delivery, the vessel lives in Miira for continuous monitoring and crew training.
Part of a growing trend.
MS Canoline is part of the growing movement to electrify coastal cargo operations. Short routes, available shore power, and rising fuel costs make the economics work today.
