Global warming has become a reality for everyone, including the shipping business. The proliferation of environmental expectations and limits on sulphur emissions have created new demands in the development of green technology. This paradigm shift will require completely new design criteria. SSPA already has the expertise and understanding to create sustainable and energy saving solutions.

Areas of engagement are for example:

• Designing environmentally sustainable ships
• Hull optimisation
• Alternative propulsion methods
• Energy saving devices
• Trim optimisation
• Ballast water treatment systems
• Cost-benefit analysis of operating the ship
