Advancements in Marine Energy Solutions: ROYPOW's Certification Success
On June 25, 2025, at the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe in Amsterdam, ROYPOW proudly announced that its marine lithium battery systems have officially attained
DNV Type Approval. This prestigious certification marks a significant milestone in the pursuit of safety and compliance across the maritime sector.
What is DNV Type Approval?
DNV, one of the world's leading classification societies, issues the DNV Type Approval after rigorous testing to ensure products meet stringent international safety and performance standards in marine applications. The certification process involved a comprehensive evaluation of ROYPOW's battery systems, which assessed design, electrical safety, environmental adaptability, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), functional safety, and compliance with environmentally-conscious regulations and standards, including DNV0339, DNV0418, IEC 62619, and IEC 61000.
This accomplishment underscores ROYPOW's commitment to delivering innovative, reliable, and certified energy solutions tailored for the maritime industry. As one of the select few companies to receive this robust certification, ROYPOW is setting a new benchmark in safe and sustainable marine energy options.
Benefits of DNV Certification for Maritime Operators
The DNV Type Approval offers numerous advantages for shipowners, operators, and system integrators. Certified solutions are recognized by global regulatory bodies, facilitating quicker implementations, simplified compliance, and reduced regulatory costs, especially in regions with stringent carbon emission regulations. Furthermore, obtaining this certification demonstrates ROYPOW's dependability, minimizes maintenance costs, and secures long-term investment viability in the maritime sector.
Cost Efficiency and Environmental Responsibility
ROYPOW's marine battery systems are specifically designed to lower operational costs and fuel consumption while achieving environmental goals within maritime operations. The systems feature a modular design comprising LiFePO4 battery modules, Power Distribution Units (PDU), and Device Control Boxes (DCB). This modularity offers flexible scalability, supporting systems up to 1000 V/2785 kWh and up to 100 MWh when multiple units are connected.
Safety remains a top priority for ROYPOW, underscored by an advanced Battery Management System (BMS). The BMS showcases a stable three-level architecture, independent hardware protection, integrated fire suppression systems built into each battery, HVIL designs for power connectors, and gas extraction systems. This design ensures reliable performance, even under harsh marine conditions.
Versatile Applications and Future Vision
The ROYPOW battery system is highly versatile, making it suitable for hybrid or fully electric vessels and offshore platforms. They cater to a range of applications including ferries, workboats, passenger vessels, tugs, luxury yachts, LNG transport ships, offshore support vessels (OSV), and aquaculture operations.
Looking ahead, ROYPOW remains dedicated to delivering high-performance, safe, and sustainable solutions while addressing the ever-evolving demands of the maritime industry. By achieving DNV Type Approval, ROYPOW not only reinforces its industry leadership but also contributes significantly to a sustainable maritime future.
