Edda flora is a research vessel used by the Institute of Maritime Research and is equipped with an Orca Energy ESS. Utilizing the battery system helps reduce fossil fuels during operations in the field by 20-30%, depending on weather and wind strength. Not only does this benefit the environment, but it also reduces fuel costs. When on-site, the ship prepares for the job and engages a battery instead of a diesel engine. This means you only need one diesel engine running instead of two or three.
