WELCOME
CLEANER AND GREENER SHIPS
I
n this issue we look at the impressive
new ferries that are currently under
construction around the world, one
of which, Stena Estrid, has recently
entered service. All the new ferries, and
indeed all new ships being designed and
built today, are influenced by the need to
be cleaner and greener, and to meet new
environmental regulations.
The latest rules, the IMO 2020 sulphur
cap, came into force on 1 January 2020,
and a raft of decarbonisation measures are
expected in the near future. These include
regional regulations, such as the emissions
control area in the Baltic, but the issue
of climate warming is at the top of the
news agenda, so can the shipping industry
adapt quickly and make a difference?
Transporting cargoes by sea produces
huge amounts of CO
2
emissions, though
the new LNG bulkers featured on page
20 offer some hope. But while companies
are going down the route of building
LNG-powered ships, which is one solution,
much more still needs to be done.
Nicholas Leach • Editor
sm.ed@kelsey.co.uk
Brittany Feries’ new Honfleur will be powered
by four LNG engines, with an output of 30,000kW,
driving electrical generators that power two propellers.
