A rotor sail is a device to obtain propulsion by using the pressure difference generated around a cylinder by rotating a cylindrical sail installed on the deck. It is expected to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions from the Ship by approximately 6~12%
NSU has been actively working to make their vessels more efficient and reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through the introduction of energy-saving devices such as rotor sails and by transitioning to ships powered by next-generation fuels.
The Vessel’s details:
Name: NSU TUBARAO
Dimensions: LOA 361.0 m x Beam 65.0 m x Depth 30.2 m x Draft 23.0 m
DWT: 399 717
Gross tonnage: 197 453
Kim Diederichsen, CEO, Anemoi Marine Technologies, said: "The installation of Anemoi's Rotor Sails on NSU TUBARAO, one of the largest vessels in the global fleet, marks another significant step forward for sustainable shipping. It's heartening to see industry leaders like NS United and Vale embracing innovative solutions to meet maritime's environmental challenges. This latest project once again underscores the importance of collaboration in driving maritime decarbonisation. By working closely with our partners, Anemoi is turning ambitious sustainability targets into tangible results, paving the way for a greener future in global shipping."
