Marine Transportation is highly energy intensive and represents one of the biggest polluting industries worldwide, producing 3% of the world’s CO2 and 15% of NOx emissions.
It is thus no surprise, that the shipping industry is looking for alternative, greener solutions to power their vessels. Starting with short-haul vessels, the trend of electrification has started with France and Norway, already today deploying 185 fully electric vessels.
As ports and shipping routes can perfectly be supplied with clean energy from waves, Exowave represents an ideal catalyser to support the transformation of the shipping industry towards green, electrical propulsion.
