CONSTANTA MARITIME UNIVERSITY SHIP THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION PART 3- SPECIAL PROBLEMS NEW ENERGETIC ASPECTS IN SHIP DESIGN Draft Edition Naval Architect and Marine Engineer IORDAN NOVAC Ph.D. CONSTANTA 2014 Chapter 1, Introduction Inreceat years, sustainability in a climate and an envzonmenal perspective hs become an issue of highest priory. This is an agenda that cannot and should not be ignored. The financial eis has revealed a vulnerable global society. Fortunately, the Intest developments hve shown signs of recovery thanks to deliberate and well-coordiated global political actions ‘which have crete new confidence emong companies and consumers. This poiica commitment can be seta a5 recognition that global production and trade erate wealth forall of us — with shipping and associated martin industries ste primary ensbers. In order to keep focus onthe ‘important agents of sustainable anf green shipping ~ even in difcuk tines ~ we must tum towards inovaton and efficient regulation, Within a foressnbe fture, shipping will ill be dependent on sil fs (1). ‘Wemust work tad o develop energy efficient and environmentally endl technologies xcompasing shipboard energy production and propuion ofthe ship as well ship operation, ‘What we ssn on propulsion sn operation wil be valid in nono tre Amber important aspect is the work done by the International Maritime Organization (@MO), which sth key player in sting regulations applicable for ll ships iespetive of fa, ‘The regultions to beset fo sa, secure and environmentally sustainable shipping must be goa tasod insead of prescribing specific solutions.

Polite and public presures hive therefore been mounting on IMO, being a responsible organization for intematiora shipping under climate change conventions, 10 ac, sce IMO publications in the references ln 2010, MO invoduced “Tectia! measures, “Operational measures" and “Eeonomic instrumons as instruments for reducing CO> emissions. The teetnical and operational measures ‘mentioned here are dret measures for improving the energy eiciency of a ship.

EEDI regultory reduction rats will Intl be applied to dry cargo carr, gas tnker, tankers, container ships, general erg ships and refigeated cargo ships above 400 gross tonages.

Alternative sources of energy in shipping In shipping, the International Maritime Organization is working on various fronts to reduce the emissions of polluting gases (sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides al patculte matter) and of greenhouse gases (meialy CO:) into the atmosphere.

The rigid sails can be rotate to est use the available wind ori ther sno win, then the solar paleo ells wil be ble to collet solr energy during the day, The solar panels cou be mounted on thesis or sitemativy they coul be mounted elsewhere onthe ship. The computer control system wil aso include a umber of safety features to prevent the sails or ship being damaged. Each rigid sil willbe pisically raised, lowered snd maneuvere by a positional sytem which will interface ‘withthe eumputr control system. The rigid sails wl be ble to move a an aay or indvitually cltherauteratialy as directed by the computer contol system, or via mani consmas entered by the ere via the control console, Most importantly the positional system willbe abl store the rig silsin a protective housing so thar they are not damaged during storms or dono nterfire ‘with cargo loadngunleading operations fr example. Another important feature of the Aquarias MRE Systemis that it incorporates an advanced energy torage sytem basd on Lithiua lon technology.
