New EU project to cut emissions and fuel costs through wind propulsion in shipping

AI Summary

The new EU-funded Horizon Europe project aims to reduce shipping emissions and fuel costs through the use of wind-assisted propulsion technologies. The project focuses on delivering validated tools and methodologies to support shipowners and regulators in adopting these cost-effective emission reduction solutions.

Advanced Wind Energy System Optimisation & Monitoring for Efficiency – is a Horizon Europe project that delivers validated tools, standardised methodologies and real-world performance data to reduce uncertainty around wind-assisted propulsion systems (WAPS). This enables shipowners and regulators to make informed decisions, lowering investment risk and accelerating the adoption of cost-effective emission reduction solutions in ...
