Ocean Powers the "Shangde Guosheng" Vessel, Setting a Green Shipping Benchmark on the Huangpu River
Launched in 2010 as Shanghai’s first solar-diesel hybrid passenger vessel, the "Shangde Guosheng" served as an official boat for the Shanghai World Expo. Equipped with a 32kW solar power system and an intelligent energy management platform, it reduces annual CO₂ emissions by over 50 tons, establishing itself as a green shipping pioneer on the Huangpu River. Its seamless operations are powered by Rehlko (formly Kohler) marine generators and Ocean marine air conditioning systems supplied by Shanghai Ocean Equipment Co., Ltd. The featured vessel in the first episode of Season 3 of Ocean “Old Friend” program is the "Shangde Guosheng".
Customer Testimonials Highlight Technical Excellence
Zero-Power-Interruption Assurance: :The vessel’s Chief Engineer emphasized that real-world data shows Kohler generators maintain voltage fluctuations at ≤1% during sudden load surges, effortlessly handling full-capacity operations. This stability is certified by classification societies. As Rehlko's (formly Kohler)authorized marine distributor in China, Eurostar’s extensive inventory of genuine spare parts significantly reduces the vessel’s lifecycle maintenance costs and downtime.
Dual Breakthroughs in Energy Efficiency & Comfort:Operational data confirms Ocean marine AC systems achieve an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 3.8, delivering 28% energy savings with noise levels ≤55 dB. The anti-salt fog design and concealed air vents ensure longevity while preserving aesthetic elegance.
Rapid Response for Uninterrupted Operations:Clients highly commend Ocean 24/7 emergency response system and local spare parts warehouse. Engineers have reached fault sites within 45 minutes and restored power in under 2 hours, providing dual assurance through "technical expertise+supply chain resilience."
