This presentation will review the MV Green Diamond operating since 2023 in the Houston port region. The hybrid system works by combining the diesel generators with batteries to deliver power via a centralized Power Management System. A Shell charging system will be used for dockside charging of the battery, allowing operation without needing the generators.
