’Green Ship of the Future’ is a Danish joint industry project aiming at developing and demonstrating technologies and methods for reduction of air emissions from shipping.

The aim of the project is to provide the necessary technologies and operational means to reduce emissions as follows for newbuildings of some ship types:

- 30 % reduction of CO2 emissions- 90 % reduction of NOx emissions- 90 % reduction of SOx emisions

The base case is the emission level of the average global fleet in 2007 with a time frame of 10 years.



To meet the reduction targets, the following four groups are considered:

- Machinery;- Propulsion;- Operations and- Logistics

The project is coordinated by the Danish Centre for Maritime Technology.

The coordination is funded by the Danish Maritime Foundation

Optimised Control for Energy Optimisation of Ship Cooling Systems

In two projects, optimised control algorithms for Reefer systems (joint project with Lodam A/S), and for general High Temperature (HT) and low temperature (LT) onboard refrigeration systems are being developed by Aalborg University.

The latter system is designed for an APM-M newbuilding, and the effect is documented by means of advanced simulations.

The project is still at an early stage, but preliminary results indicate significant energy savings, possibly as much as 45% (rough estimate).

‘GreenSteam’ Trim Optimisation

Dynamic Trim optimisation with GreenSteam

GreenStem is a new energy saving system for ships, providing reduction in energy consumption by adjusting ship trim and speed.

Based on readings from multitude censors over a prolonged period of time, the relations between the dynamically changing conditions and the energy requirements are mapped and analysed into a mathematical model. This model is used for onboard guidance to the crew as regards optimum trim and speed.

The aim of the project is to demonstrate the effect of GreenSteam onboard a product tanker owned by DS Norden A/S

‘Lab on a ship’

RealTime analysis of bunker quality and emissions with LOAS

‘Lab on a ship’ (LOAS) is a new and innovative product by NanoNord. During bunkering LOAS provides online measurements of the elements of the bunker oil, lube oil, cylinder oil, etc. In addition the system offers online measurements of exhaust gas emissions of NOx and SOx.

With the LOAS system the sulphur content of both the bunker oil and the exhaust emissions are measured and documented, which is important for the verification of the MARPOL Annex IV regulations.

LOAS is installed onboard two Bulk Carriers owned by Lauritzen Bulkers and the project aims at demonstrating the applicability of the system.

SeaPlanner FuelSaver

SeaPlanner FuelSaver has been installed on six vessels of the DFDS fleet.

The advanced version is specially suited for Short Sea Shipping and will allow the officers to plan their route taking into account weather, ETA and shallow waters.

With highly detailed weather prognoses of the North Sea and Baltic Sea (supplied by DMI) and with a GPS link, SeaPlannercontinuously monitors and guides the Master on the optimum speed and heading.

With this project DFDS, FORCE Technology and DMI will show the potential of the SeaPlanner FuelSaver based upon the experience gained with the programme.
