Edition Issue: Wind Propulsion 2024 Publication Year: 2024 Publication Type: Conference Proceeding

Wind propulsion is emerging as a key enabler of zero-emission coastal cruise operations. Through detailed assessment of sail configurations, weather data and vessel integration, researchers identify practical pathways to enhance energy efficiency, support battery-electric concepts and inform future ship design, while revealing critical operational trade-offs for successful maritime decarbonisation strategies.
