REGBES works with port operators, defence companies, and EU research consortia — delivering hardware, software, and engineering expertise across maritime electrification projects in Europe and beyond.
MARDAS is one of Turkey's leading container terminal operators, handling significant container volumes through its Istanbul facility. The terminal required a shore power solution for its container berths — specifically designed for the narrow-aisle layout between vessel and quay that characterises high-density container terminals.
REGBES delivered a mobile dual-reel cable management system configured for the terminal's narrow berth aisles — allowing two shore power cables to be deployed simultaneously for faster vessel connection and higher turnaround throughput.
TEDEG is a Turkish defence R&D company developing military-grade power electronics and embedded systems for land, sea, and air platforms. REGBES provided power management consulting and engineering expertise to support TEDEG's development of marine and vehicle power systems — contributing system design, power architecture analysis, and technical validation.
BlueBARGE is an EU Horizon Europe-funded project led by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS). Its goal is to design and demonstrate an optimal power barge solution for supplying electrical power to moored and anchored vessels in locations where shore-side grid connection is unavailable or impractical — addressing a major gap in the maritime energy transition for offshore and anchorage operations.
REGBES contributes the cable management systems for both the port-to-barge and barge-to-ship connections, and is developing a universal modular CMS that can be configured for different vessel types and IEC standards — scaling the BlueBARGE concept from a single vessel to full offshore terminal operations.
Hy2FISH is a project developing a hydrogen, solar, and battery-powered fishing vessel platform — one of the first integrated zero-emission propulsion systems for the commercial fishing sector. The vessel combines a hydrogen fuel cell, PV panels, battery storage, and a hydrogen genset with conventional propulsion in a fully managed multi-source power architecture.
REGBES is responsible for the Energy Management System and Power Management System — developing the software that coordinates power flow between all sources, optimises energy consumption, and manages the onboard shore power connection. REGBES also conducts underwater noise and vibration measurements as part of the project's environmental assessment work.
The Smart Power Booster is a Rotterdam Municipality-backed project, funded through the Smart Energy Systems Subsidy programme. Its goal is to deliver power and alternative fuel to inland port vessels at berths where permanent shore power infrastructure is not available — addressing the growing electrification needs of inland waterway shipping on Dutch and European waterways.
REGBES developed a hybrid cable management system enabling a single mobile tower to serve multiple vessels efficiently — reducing the infrastructure investment required per berth and making shore power economically viable at smaller inland ports. The system is designed for hybrid delivery: different fuel types or plug standards can be served from the same unit depending on the vessel and application, making it viable at ports with a mixed inland fleet. The demo phase has been successfully completed. Work continues on integrating the autonomous connection system to further reduce operator workload.
REGBES works with port operators, vessel owners, systems integrators, and EU research consortia. Whether you're scoping a commercial shore power installation or developing a funded research proposal, we bring hardware, software, and maritime electrification expertise to the table.
