Wind Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP)

Thank you to all participants and the co-hosts from @WindWasp (Wind Assisted Ship Propulsion) project and the The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network initiative for the great exchange! #shipping #maritime #sustainability #climatechange #ports #myKLU

Looking forward to the line up of speakers during the Natural Propulsion Seminar on Day 1 of the Blueweek -hope to see you all there! #windpropulsion #windassist #shippinng #shippingindustry #shipsandshipping #navalarchitect lnkd.in/em44zujK

This article asks some of the key questions regarding wind propulsion this year - Is wind power for shipping: nice to have or a must? Will 2023-24 prove to be a breakout year for wind propulsion? Is this all hype or is there real…lnkd.in/eYA4RvtH lnkd.in/ecVvbiUQ

Christiaan De Beukelaer is a man after my own heart. In this article he tackles some of the lingering myths out there around wind propulsion and its potential. Some more myth-busting is in the pipeline, watch this space! #windpro…lnkd.in/dMWkizQy lnkd.in/dR3993rt

This article highlights that Rotor sails are currently the most installed wind propulsion device, but that other technology types will be growing in 2023 too. There are 24 vessels that are slated for installation this year (with so…lnkd.in/eAiGXt8G lnkd.in/eH6wCTDU

The number of wind-installed vessels is set to double in the next twelve months, according to estimates from the International Windship Association @iwsa_secretary offshore-energy.biz/iwsa-momentum-…

Five French MEPs have called on the EU to up investment in sustainable #maritime innovation, and lead global shipping #decarbonisation efforts. Advanced biofuels can support this goal by accelerating decarbonisation with domestic waste feedstocks. euractiv.com/section/shippi…

We are proud to say that a number if our @NorthSeaRegion projects are doing amazing things on this front! To name just 2. Our @WindWasp project is using the power of the wind for greener travel. And our #ZEMPorts project is helping to move ships to #hydrogen engines. #interreg
