The current use of alternative fuels and renewable energy sources within the shipping industry is still relatively scarce. Growing environmental legislation and concerns are driving the need to develop and apply innovative alternative power and propulsion technology for ships.
Now, industry players are increasingly putting a modern spin on one of the oldest concepts in shipping: harnessing the power of wind for ship propulsion.
Since the inaugural conference in 2019, the annual event has attracted a high level of interest in the maritime community. Attending speakers and delegates span the technology companies, academia, ship owners and industry associations.
Over 100 delegates gathered at the IMO HQ for the Wind Propulsion 2023 Conference to hear from two keynote speakers - Arsenio Dominguez (Director, Marine Environment Division, IMO) and Gavin Allwright (International Windship Association) as well as many other interesting presentations including from companies such as MOL; bound4blue; Anemoi Marine Technologies; Norsepower; Wärtsilä; RISE; Bureau Veritas Solutions M&O; MARIN and many more.
The 2024 conference agenda promises to bring those attending fully up to speed with recent technological, design and policy developments, and cast the minds of attendees into the future landscape for wind propulsion technology.
