Wind Propulsion in 2025: Charting the Course Toward IMO’s Net-Zero Ambition
The maritime industry stands at a turning point in 2025. As international shipping faces increasing regulatory and market pressure to decarbonize, wind propulsion has re-emerged—not as a nostalgic nod to the age of sail, but as a cutting-edge technology delivering measurable efficiency gains. With momentum growing, the coming years will be decisive in shaping how […]
How to Accurately Predict the Performance of Wind-Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) Systems
How to Accurately Predict the Performance of Wind-Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) Systems The momentum behind wind-assisted ship propulsion (WASP) is undeniable. Shipowners, charterers, and regulators are increasingly relying on wind to cut emissions and fuel costs. Yet one question dominates the debate: how much can these systems really deliver? The answer is not trivial. Predicting the performance […]
