“With the VentoFoils we have set a target for a 10% reduction in CO2 emissions. For the Chemical Challenger, we anticipate an annual CO2 reduction of about 850 tonnes. This is equivalent to the yearly CO2 emissions of over 500 passenger cars.”
Niels Grotz
CEO – Chemship
“The decision to invest in Wind-Assisted Ship Propulsion with Econowind’s VentoFoils is logical and fully in line with our ‘outside the box’ mindset. We see great potential in wind propulsion in certain traffic areas, the North Sea is optimal for our Odda Marie.”
Antti Partanen
CEO – RABN
“We believe it’s necessary and important to meet sustainability challenges to reduce our environmental footprint. Together with the IMO decarbonization goals for 2050, we want to do our part to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions as soon as possible. Installing VentoFoils is a big step forwards.”
