EEXI REGULATIONS
Recent developments at the IMO, which have led to EEXI
regulations coming into force in 2023, will have a huge impact, Patrick stresses. Studies show that a significant part of the existing fleet will need to have modifications to their hull and/or propeller to meet the standards. “As a result, we are seeing a huge demand for new vessels and retrofits.” For those looking at retrofit options, there is growing interest in windassisted propulsion, he adds.
