This is a case study on how to decarbonize a ro-ro passenger vessel by applying Ecospeed to its hull. Ecospeed is a hard, non-toxic coating which provides long-lasting protection for all ship hulls. The hypothetic vessel is called ‘Lady Ice Cold’, a ro-ro operating in North-Western Europe with 33 MW installed engine capacity. Ecospeed reduces carbon emissions by 9% - 16% with a total CAPEX of €390.000.

Join Martijn van Ruiten as we discuss Ecospeed, a proven, non-toxic, cost-effective alternative technology for underwater ship hull protection and biofouling control. It can save up to 10-25% of fuel consumption and emissions, some specific cases even claim a reduction as high as 40% or more.
