Abstract: From the packages you receive to the groceries you buy, chances are these came by sea. Every day hundreds of vessels trawl the ocean, burning fuel and spewing carbon dioxide, so it should come as no surprise that the EU is aiming to make the maritime industry more sustainable. The trick is to make sea vessels more efficient so they use less fuel. ‘It's not just the shape of the ship or the propeller, but it's a mix of everything,’ Prof. Ing. Claire De Marco explains. ‘You have to optimise everything to make it more efficient.’ [excerpt]
