Unmanned Electric Tugboat Formation Multi-Agent Energy-Aware Control System Concept

Abstract: The topic of reducing exhaust gas emissions from internal combustion engines in the areas of port and coastal waters is in line with the assumptions of the climate policy. The publication presents a proposal to reduce the energy associated with the movement of port vessels through the use of a specific pattern (shape and size) of their movement. In addition to controlling the formation of tugboats, the authors propose the use of a multi-agent system offering elements of autonomous control of the vessels, which… Show more

“…This is not an easy task, as it requires significant time and effort and also puts involved people at risk. In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in the commercialization of autonomous tugboats [2][3][4]. This opens the door for automated control of the offshore platform transportation system with better performance and without human intervention.…”

“…For ecological reasons, the best solution is to use energy from renewable energy sources (RES) to charge electric vehicles. Due to their quiet operation and zero emission, electric drives are used to power passenger cars, buses [31], floating ships and drones [25].…”
