Keeping in view the business as well as the environmental aspects, the authorities concerned, have rolled out several directions that the companies on and off-the shores need to follow. Amidst the new rules and guidelines follow there are, of course, institutions' growth targets. Recounting a few directions from the authorities concerned, with the Chief Operating Officer of Greensteam Learning Technology – Simon Whitford, here we have his insights on how is Greensteam taking up the challenges. Recently, the UN announced that global GHG emissions must be reduced by 7.6% every year for the next decade. With regard to GreenSteam's fuel saving figures, Mr Withford talks about solutions they have and explains: "GreenSteam's ML platform calculates a 30% non-propulsion fuel use for an average non-optimised deep sea voyage. Right now, GreenSteam has tools to measure and improve vessel optimisation. The 3 target areas for vessel optimisation are trim, speed and hull cleanliness. We have solutions for trim and hull cleanliness and we are beta testing a speed optimisation solution. That means we can address this 15% of fuel wastage."
