This document sets out how wind energy can be incorporated into the Mid-term measures developed to implement the 2023 IMO Strategy on Reduction of GHG Emissions from Ships.

Submitted in partnership with Finland, France, Saudi Arabia, Solomon Islands, Spain, Union of Comoros, and RINA, this paper lays out the role of wind propulsion technologies within the wider context of decarbonization of shipping.

This paper submitted in partnership with Comoros, France, and the Solomon Islands delivers a detailed baseline assessment of wind propulsion technology (WPT) systems. It outlines pathways underway for the dissemination and scaling of this technology segment, and a detailed macro and micro economic analysis of their benefits.

Policy Papers

We engage policymakers at the UN’s International Maritime Organisation (IMO), the European Union (EU) and national policy levels to take a holistic approach that puts wind energy on a level playing field with fuels and other energy sources.

Integrating zero-emissions, zero-cost wind energy into all policy pathways is vital to deliver a sustainable, equitable and profitable future global shipping fleet.

Together with industry stakeholders and policymakers, we are charting the course to Net Zero emissions, in the fastest and most cost-effective way. 

We believe the most effective route to achieving this is through:

  • High ambition zero-emissions platform for all policy measures, not solely direct GHG emissions.
  • Circular distribution of revenue from economic measures to fund energy transition technology and solution scaling.
  • Adopt a energy-centric rather than narrow fuel-centric approach.
  • Fully energy and technology agnostic, level playing field.
  • Integration of direct wind propulsion into all policy, including carbon intensity measurements and economic measures.
  • Support for a ‘Just’ and ‘Equitable’ transition for SIDS and LDCs
