Sustainable Ships partnered with Natpower Marine to evaluate shore power integration for a hybrid merchant vessel, analyzing methanol, biofuels, and battery hybrids to assess cost, compliance, and long-term decarbonization benefits.

Sustainable Ships assisted HEBO gain crucial insights into the cost-effectiveness of different decarbonization measures, in particular battery hybrid solutions and the use of alternative fuels. The project went beyond technical details like engine usage and operational profiles, but also involved close cooperation to develop a tailored strategy to comply with regulatory standards.

Sustainable Ships supported Van Oord in developing a customized Decarbonizer to enable scenario planning and long-term sustainability decision-making. The tool provides a structured way to assess decarbonization pathways at vessel level, linking technical options with regulatory and strategic considerations.

Sustainable Ships supported the Refit Alliance by extending its Decarbonizer tool to inland waterway vessels, enabling students and industry stakeholders to explore realistic decarbonisation pathways. The tool helps translate technical and economic considerations into applied, scenario-based analysis for inland shipping.

Sustainable Ships supported Steenstra Shipping with a vessel-specific decarbonisation roadmap for the Douwe-S, providing a structured assessment of regulatory requirements and feasible carbon reduction measures. The work informed long-term decision-making by clarifying compliance implications under EEXI, estimating the cost impact of measures such as shore power, and evaluating opportunities to repurpose existing onboard systems.
