bound4blue
Maritime transport drives global trade but also contributes to environmental pollution. The EU-funded bound4blue project proposes a highly innovative aeronautics-based wingsail. It uses the wind as a renewable energy source for propulsion to reduce more than 30 % of the fuel used in maritime transport (merchant vessels, fishing vessels, passenger vessels, etc.). It also complies with the new International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulations and the European Green Deal goals. The project proposes two patented types: a foldable wingsail that is more suitable for vessels with space and manoeuvrability restrictions and a suction-based wingsail (eSAIL), more affordable for smaller vessels.
