This significant milestone highlights the collaborative journey between OceanWings and Bureau Veritas, which began with the successful development of the Canopée project. This new AiP signals not only a step forward in the advancement of OceanWings’ technology but also marks a continuation of its commitment to fuel efficiency and emissions reduction in maritime transportation.
“The development of viable wind propulsion systems offers an exciting avenue to further support the maritime industry in its efforts to decarbonize. Solutions such as OceanWings OW RT technology provide a prime example of innovative technological developments that seek to integrate with current maritime operations, providing a viable means for ship owners and operators to make a meaningful impact on their carbon emissions,” commented Christophe CHAUVIERE, Vice President—Southwest Europe, North Africa and Americas at Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore.
