Exhaust waste heat recovery retrofit
vendor claim — not yet independently measuredRecovering exhaust-gas energy via an economizer or power turbine to produce steam or electricity that would otherwise require fuel. Suits large engines with long sea passages.
Which ships it suits
- Segments: Container ship, Oil tanker, Chemical tanker, Bulk carrier, LNG carrier
- Size: from 60,000 DWT
- Remaining service life: at least 10 years (payback must fit inside it)
Addressable opportunity (CII band D/E fleet)
Eligible vessels — worst CII band first
Yards with demonstrated capability
Derived from shipyard-visit evidence: yards whose visiting vessels subsequently showed the relevant equipment in class records. Source marked per row; yards can additionally claim capabilities via their profile.
Measured real-world outcomes
The reduction range above is a vendor claim. We continuously detect completed retrofits in shipyard-visit, equipment and EU MRV emissions data and measure the actual AER change. Measured results are published per measure once at least 30 controlled observations exist — until then, treat vendor ranges as ceilings: real-world delivery is consistently at or below the low end.
