One more industry first! 🎉 We are proud to announce that two Norsepower Rotor Sails™️ have been successfully installed on a capesize bulk carrier for Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) and Vale, representing a world first for a retrofit on this vessel type. Camellia Dream, which recently marked its first call at Ponta de Madeira, Brazil, is expected to achieve about 6-10% fuel and GHG emissions reductions when also combined with voyage optimization technology. With the wind in our sails, we are accelerating towards reaching zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

In an industry full of claims about emissions and fuel savings, we’re proud to take a data-first approach to our discussions. Working with NAPA and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd., we used digital twin technology and sophisticated sea-state modelling to demonstrate emissions reductions of 28% sailing between New York and Amsterdam. Our system created 16% of these savings and voyage optimization provided the rest. These findings are just the start of the story. Through active collaboration with industry partners, from classification societies to data service providers, we can continue to prove the tangible savings of using the Norsepower Rotor Sail™️. This proves that when we say savings are there for the taking, we mean it! Read more below👇 #Decarbonization #Emissions #RotorSails #WindPropulsion #ShipsandShipping #Norsepower #Data

You can’t manage what you can’t measure and, as NorthStandard highlights, data is playing an increasingly important role in helping ship owners make informed decisions about how to adapt to tightening environmental regulations. Our latest Norsepower E-Cal method, validated by DNV, is designed to accurately calculate the effective power of the Norsepower Rotor Sail™ (NPRS™). With this data insight, we are empowering ship owners and charterers to take a proactive approach to ensuring a vessel’s compliance with the latest IMO and EU regulations, and reducing the overall investment risks for all stakeholders. With proven technology and the right data, we’re blowing away any obstacles to decarbonization out of the way.

We’re making waves in Japan. After a successful event at the Sea Japan Exhibition earlier in the year, our Chief Customer Operations Officer, Jukka Kuuskoski, had the opportunity to talk about all things Norsepower with Japan Maritime Daily. In his interview, Jukka shared his insights about how Norsepower is bringing sails back to shipping. We've been able to save 20,100 plus tonnes of CO2 from being emitted since 2014 by harnessing the wind with our Norsepower Rotor SailTM (NPRSTM). With shorter payback period, minimal down time for installation and innovative leasing initiatives on offer, embracing the NPRSTM is a no-brainer.

During Posidonia Events, Jukka Kuuskoski, our Chief Customer Operations Officer, and NAPA’s Senior Sales Manager, Philippos Giannakos, met Cyprus Shipping News to discuss the bold steps we are taking to build a more sustainable maritime industry. One way is through active collaborations. In a joint study with NAPA and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd., we quantified the impact of combining a Norsepower Rotor SailTM (NPRSTM) with NAPA Voyage Optimization onboard a Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. vessel. We demonstrated that together, these solutions can help the vessel achieve up to 28% CO2 emissions reductions. For decision makers, it’s this type of data that’s accelerating clean technology adoption. As well as discussing how we are all doing our part, both Jukka and Philippos were keen to stress that there’s still significant progress to make – and how further collaborations can help get the wind truly behind the industry’s sails on its journey to net zero.

Another Norsepower Rotor Sail™️ (NPRS™️) is officially out at sea, saving fuel and reducing emissions! In collaboration with BHP and PAN PACIFIC COPPER CO.,LTD. (PPC), our latest retrofit has been successfully installed onboard the M/V Koryu, operated by Nippon Marine. The vessel is currently on its NPRS-assisted maiden voyage across the Pacific Ocean, from Japan to Chile. With estimated average fuel savings of 5-6 percent, calculated through our advanced simulations and real-world performance data, the M/V Koryu is poised to be the best-performing vessel in its class for GHG emission intensity.
