Description
We are developing a complete understanding of energy flows around a vessel. We are also providing a detailed equipment architecture review. These are fundamental to enable whole vessel energy efficiency savings.
The resulting system will provide end-users with:
- a detailed understanding of vessel energy architecture
- a sensor-based physical monitoring system
- software for querying data generated by the system to drive Key Performance Indicators
The system will offer a consultative approach to new products or services which can aid efficiency.
