ENERGY-SAVING DEVICES
Driving green shipping forward: The impact of Becker’s solutions on maritime sustainability.
The main energy-saving devices from Becker Marine Systems include the Becker Mewis Duct® and the Becker Twisted Fin®, two groundbreaking solutions that significantly contribute to increasing energy efficiency and to reducing power consumption and CO 2 emissions. Independent model tests and CFD simulations demonstrate that the use of these energy-saving solutions can lead to significant energy savings. Reductions of up to 10% for tankers and bulk carriers and up to 4% for container ships are herewith realistic. These significant efficiency improvements are crucial for complying with environmental and emission standards, especially in relation to the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) and the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII). The energy-saving devices have a direct contribution to improve the EEXI (by an increase of the reference speed) and CII (by reducing the vessels CO 2 emissions). Therefore, the Becker Mewis Duct® and the Becker Twisted Fin® are cost-effective measures for promoting an even more sustainable shipping – applicable during newbuild or as retrofit.
