Research institute MARIN and classification society ABS have kicked off the WiSP2 joint industry project to help facilitate the broad uptake of wind propulsion as an important tool for shipping decarbonization. 

International Windship Association launched an initiative in an effort to deliver credible, robust and commercially attractive wind solutions to the shipping market.

The International Windship Association launched a new initiative to accelerate shipping decarbonisation. A new campaign called the ‘Decade of Wind Propulsion’, aim to accelerate the adoption of hybrid alternative propulsion methods, blending wind, alternative fuels and energy efficiency measures.

In an effort to accelerate the adoption of hybrid alternative propulsion methods, blending wind, alternative fuels and energy efficiency measures, International Windship Association launched a campaign.

The American Bureau of Shipping just entered the non-profit organisation, International Windship Association (IWSA) in an effort to boost wind propulsion solutions for commercial shipping.

Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha Ltd., or “K” LINE recently joined the International Windship Association (IWSA) in order to further develop direct wind propulsion in commercial shipping.

A large number of wind propulsion projects are under development and increasingly coming to market, said Gavin Allwright, Secretary General of IWSA in his opening address at the International Wind Propulsion for Shipping forum.

In line with an increased shift to environmentally-friendly solutions as a pathway to decarbonization, ClassNK announced it is joining the International Windship Association (IWSA), which is working to promote wind as a viable propulsion option for commercial vessels.

Bureau Veritas is the new member of the International Windship Association (IWSA) to assist in the development of various renewable solutions. BV's addition is expected to boost IWSA's development with the establishment of regional wind propulsion ‘centres of excellence’ or ‘hubs’ around the world.
