With new regulations and expensive bunker markets, the benefit of making your fleet more efficient and less carbon intensive has become a desirable business case. Improving your current fleet's CII- and EEXI ratings will improve your bottom line and make your fleet more valuable. Ensuring the maximum potential EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) of your new builds makes your vessel more attractive for chartering and warrants lower fuel costs. You may also need to comply with increasingly stricter ECA-requirements for your operations as well.
Consumer awareness is growing, and they are becoming more selective and demanding of how their goods and resources are being transported.
Eventually, the greenest Ship Owner will be the most successful Ship Owner.
Considering these consumer preferences and the evolving landscape of sustainable shipping practices, a multitude of technological choices emerges. Amongst other these technologies include Wind Assisted Propulsion, Alternative Fuels, Hybrid/battery Propulsion, Air Lubrication, Paint Systems, Propeller and Rudder efficiency, Hull Cleaning, Fuel Additives, Solar Power, Weather Routing, Waste heat Recovery, Exhaust Gas Treatment and Carbon Capture.
Individually these technologies may offer modest benefits, but when you start to combine them, the savings will also stack up to very attractive figures.
