Towards Smarter and More Energy-Efficient Shipping: Optimising ship energy systems through technology, data and human behaviour
The maritime sector faces a major challenge in reducing its energy use and emissions. New fuels, electrification and alternative propulsion technologies will play an important role in the long-term energy transition, but their large-scale implementation takes time. Ships typically remain in service for decades, while retrofitting existing vessels can be technically complex and economically challenging. At the same time, considerable potential remains to improve how existing ship energy systems are operated. This project investigates how technology, data and human behaviour can be combined to improve the energy performance of ships. Rather than focusing exclusively on replacing existing technologies, the project explores how incremental improvements in control systems, equipment, operational practices and decision-making can contribute to lower energy consumption and emissions.
