🚢 In the news: Shipowner demand for wind assisted propulsion is increasing as systems prove their worth and emissions regulation boosts their commercial impact. Increasing numbers of orders for wind assisted propulsion demonstrate a growing confidence in the technologies at a time regulation is increasing the commercial benefits of systems, bound4blue COO & Co-founder Cristina Aleixendri Muñoz told Seatrade Maritime News. 💬 “Owners used to send their oldest ships for preliminary analysis for sails, maybe due to CII, maybe due to perceived risk. Now they want them on their new ships, even good, CII-compliant ones.” 📰 Read the full story on Seatrade Maritime News: https://lnkd.in/eFw4EJQq #CMAShippig #Sustainability #Maritime

As the maritime sector looks to accelerate its decarbonization journey, ship owners are turning to the past for inspiration as wind-assisted propulsion systems (WAPS) grow in popularity. In a recent article for New Energy World, Johanna Tranell, WAPS expert at DNV Maritime, provided an overview of the systems that are currently available and highlighted the vast future potential of wind propulsion. She observes: “With many shipowners struggling to keep up with fast-moving regulatory requirements, and unsure about where and how to invest to achieve compliance, these technologies can – under the right conditions – provide real and tangible decarbonisation results.” Read more here: https://dnv.social/5ky #Maritime #Wind #Propulsion

Sometimes we need to look to the past to see what we can do in the future, and the increasing popularity of wind assisted propulsion only seems to prove this point. Regulations are increasing financial viability of using wind propulsion for certain trade routes.

A new report from the UCLEnergyInstitute has raised serious concerns about maritime asset stranding, with over a third of the global fleet at risk of premature scrapping - unless costly retrofits are made to stay compliant with tightening GHG regulations. As the industry grapples with rising fuel costs, supply chain risks, and uncertainty around alternative fuels, one proven and readily available solution remains underutilised: Wind Propulsion. At BAR Technologies, we believe that Wind Assisted Propulsion Systems (WAPS) are no longer a "future technology" - they are a commercially viable solution today. As our CEO, John Cooper, highlights: "The data is very clear - when averaged over time, wind represents a steady, reliable, and highly abundant resource that can be effectively ‘bunkered’ along major trade routes." At The Royal Institution of Naval Architects conference at the International Maritime Organization last week, the wind sessions identified new techniques for maximising wind bunkering yields by applying course and speed corrections. Mr. Cooper added; “The digital technology exists to support officers and crew to apply effective harvesting techniques and operate WAPS safely and with ease. By leveraging decades of meteorological data and modern routing technology and with our WindWings®, we are confident that shipping can achieve a self-sourced fuel advantage that other industries simply cannot replicate.” 📢 Read the full report from ROBIN Business Information (link in comments) 🔍 And explore our in-depth analysis on wind propulsion here: https://lnkd.in/dGE48w7m Image Courtesy of Berge Bulk #Decarbonisation #Maritime #WindPropulsion #SustainableShipping #ShippingInnovation #BARTechnologies #WAPS
