This move positions the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet-com.webpkgcache.com\/doc\/-\/s\/inspenet.com\/articulo\/principio-de-la-energia-eolica-marina\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wind energy<\/a><\/strong> as a key component in the transition to more sustainable shipping. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the new LR2 tankers<\/h2>\n\n<p>The vessels &#8220;Suzuka&#8221; and &#8220;Long Beach&#8221; (both 250 meters in length) will be equipped with two 37.5 meter WindWings\u00ae units. This equipment will enable an <strong>average daily reduction of 3 tons of fossil fuel<\/strong>, achieving an approximate annual savings of 2300 tons of CO\u2082 per vessel, which represents a direct impact on the emissions targets set by the IMO for 2030. <\/p>\n\n<p>Moreover, the vessels are being designed by SDARI and built by Xiamen Shipbuilding Industry (XSI), with construction scheduled to start in November 2025 and delivery scheduled for the first quarter of 2027. In addition, they will sail under the Marshall Islands flag and will be classed by Bureau Veritas Marine &amp; Offshore, ensuring high standards of safety and structural performance. <\/p>\n\n<p>This deployment on LR2 tankers marks a paradigm shift, as these are critical to the global transportation of refined petroleum products and chemicals. With wind propulsion supporting its dual-fuel systems, it consolidates a model of operational efficiency and emissions reduction that can be scaled across the shipping industry. <\/p>\n\n<p>John Cooper, CEO of BAR Technologies, has emphasized that wind energy is no longer a promise for the future, but a mature solution ready to be implemented. The<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/commercial-ships\/windwings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> WindWings\u00ae technology<\/a><\/strong> technology has been optimized through collaboration with CM Energy Tech, which will enable these solutions to be mass-produced on a large scale to meet growing global demand. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Follow us on social networks and don&#8217;t miss any of our publications!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow\">X (Twitter)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@inspenet?_t=8qqIL6dRGNR&amp;_r=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bartechnologies.uk\/commercial-ships\/bar-technologies-secures-first-of-its-kind-wind-propulsion-deployment-on-dual-fuel-lr2-tankers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BAR Technologies<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The vessels will reduce 2300 tons of CO\u2082 per year thanks to wind propulsion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8403,"featured_media":280748,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13044],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-280798","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-new-energies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/280798","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8403"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280798"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/280798\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280798"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=280798"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=280798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
