Assessing energy-efficiency technologies
DNV has published a report to help shipowners select energy-efficiency measures that reduce fuel consumption and support decarbonisation. The report analyses over 40 solutions, detailing cost, fuel-saving potential and ship-type suitability.
DNV Maritime CEO Knut Ørbeck-Nilssen stressed the importance of efficiency in cutting emissions and facilitating the transition to low-carbon fuels. The report outlines a three-step decarbonisation strategy and explores options like biofuels, fuel cells and carbon capture.
Global decarbonisation director Jason Stefanatos highlighted that each percentage of fuel saved translates into significant cost reductions. Digitalisation also plays a key role in optimising operations and ensuring cybersecurity. (ah)
