The Industrial Decarbonisation Research and Innovation Centre (IDRIC) at Heriot-Watt University is collaborating on a £1 million project, “MaritimeTwin,” to develop a digital twin solution for reducing shipping emissions. By integrating real-time satellite data, this technology aims to optimize navigation, enhance fuel efficiency, and support cleaner global shipping practices.
Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha (“K” LINE) announced that its subsidiary, Oceanicwing, completed the first phase of land-based testing for the Seawing kite system. This innovative wind-assisted propulsion system aims to enhance maritime transport efficiency by harnessing high-altitude winds, with promising results leading to further development phases and larger-scale testing planned.
