New project: EcoShipYard aims to revolutionise the European #shipbuilding industry by providing tools with which to assess the #environmental impact of ships and shipyard processes. Specifically, EcoShipYard will create and implement an EU-material passport for ships that will enable the source and utilisation of #materials used in shipbuilding to be monitored, and provide crucial handling details on the #circularity of these. The project partners are National Technical University of Athens, the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Atlantec Enterprise Solutions, Astilleros de Santander S.A.U., Azimut|Benetti Group, German Aerospace Center (DLR), Danaos Shipping Co. Ltd, Epsilon Malta Ltd, Floorganise, software for shipyard operations., Grieg Green, ISQ, LTH-Baas Integrated Maritime Services, ShipReality Inc., the University of Strathclyde Naval Architecture & Engineering, WEGEMT and TWI Hellas.

Today marks a special day in a project that we are following closely. With the mounting of the keel the sailing yacht zero is one big step closer to sailing the oceans - and eventually operating without using fossil fuels. We’ve been following the construction of Zero very closely for a while, for all its interesting and innovative technology on board. Fundamental for the design and build of this project is the close collaboration between the industry leaders VRIPACK DESIGN, Vitters Shipyard and Dykstra Naval Architects, and the support of many industry experts. We are so curious to see its next steps and will showcase more interesting technology used in the project here. #RenewableEnergy #EnergyEfficiency #Innovation #MarineEngineering #TechInnovation #ShipTechnology

Somec Navale’s solutions embody cutting-edge #technology, meeting strict product classification standards and prioritizing sustainability. From thermal break systems to glass that minimizes solar radiation and heat dispersion, every detail reflects a commitment to #innovation, #design, and #environmental responsibility. Within this framework, #SomecNavale played a key role in the construction of #MeinSchiff7, the seventh cruise liner in the #TUICruises series, built at the Meyer Turku shipyard in #Finland for #RCCLgroup. As part of its turnkey contract, Somec Navale designed, built, and installed specialized glass solutions for public areas and suites, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics. The Mein Schiff 7 project reinforces Somec Navale’s position as a world leader in #marineglazing and naval architectures. #Horizons #MarineEngineering #LuxuryCruiseDesign #qualitàcostruttivaitaliana

Introducing the EcoShipYard project - Empowering EU shipyards/ship owners with tools for assessing ships' environmental impact and shipyard processes - which will create an 'EU-material passport' for ships. The aim is to monitor the source and utilisation of #materials involved in the #construction, upkeep, #repair and dismantling of ships, tracking their origin and use to provide crucial details for the circular handling of materials. The solutions created within EcoShipYard will contribute to minimising the #environmentalimpact of #shipyards, enhanced #energyefficiency, streamlined operations, and measurement and reduction of non-operational impacts. The project partners are National Technical University of Athens, American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Atlantec Enterprise Solutions, Astilleros de Santander S.A.U., Azimut|Benetti Group, German Aerospace Center (DLR), Danaos Shipping Co. Ltd, Epsilon Malta Ltd, Floorganise, software for shipyard operations., Grieg Green, ISQ, LTH-Baas, ShipReality Inc., University of Strathclyde Naval Architecture & Engineering, WEGEMT and TWI Hellas.

📢 Human Factors 2024 Conference We're excited to share that the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) and MARIN (Maritime Research Institute Netherlands) will host the Human Factors 2024 Conference on 8th-9th October 2024 in Wageningen, The Netherlands. A special tour of MARIN's Seven Oceans Simulator Centre will follow on 10th October. This conference will delve into the crucial role of Human Factors in maritime operations, focusing on enhancing safety, efficiency, and sustainability through Human-Centred Design. Neil Hancock, Operations Director at RINA, emphasises, "Human Centred Design must be at the forefront of our industry to ensure the safety of our maritime environment and seafarers." As highlighted by Hans Huisman, Team Leader Human Factors at MARIN, "Human Factors support first-time-right designing by applying a Human-Centred Design approach and can significantly enhance safety and team effectiveness during operations." To read more from Hans on Human Factors check an article from a recent TNA issue: https://lnkd.in/ezdxMpBS Don’t miss this opportunity for informed presentations, lively debates, and hands-on workshops, including a unique tour of the cutting-edge Seven Oceans Simulator Centre.

Wärtsilä, EBDG join forces on methanol-fueled power barge Finnish technology group Wärtsilä has entered into a collaboration agreement with US-based naval architecture and marine engineering firm Elliott Bay Design Group (EBDG) to further develop EBDG’s clean harbor alternative mobile power (CHAMP) barge design. The floating mobile power platform has been designed to function in ports across the US in accordance with the specific zero-emission plans and requirements established by local authorities and regulations. When delivered, CHAMP will use methanol-fuelled power generated by the Wärtsilä 32 Methanol engine. This engine helps reduce emissions, thus meeting the decarbonization requirements of most ports, according to the Finnish firm. Furthermore, the engine will be complemented by Wärtsilä’s complete methanol fuel handling system, Wärtsilä MethanolPac, as well as its emission after-treatment system, Wärtsilä NOx Reducer. https://bit.ly/4a27ji0 #methanol #alternativefuel #renewable #cleanfuel #futurefuel #energytransition #sustainable
