Marine engineering consultancy BAR Technologies has partnered with Scandinavian scrubber manufacturer Yara Marine to bring WindWings technology to the global shipping market. The first commercial retrofit will take place on a Cargill vessel, expected for delivery in 2022, offering up to a 30% reduction in fuel consumption for bulk carriers, tankers and other large shipping vessels, by combining wind propulsion with route optimization. WindWings utilize solid wing sails measuring up to 45 meters in height, fitted to the deck of bulk cargo ships to harness the power of the wind.
