More than 10,000 ships could be using wind propulsion systems by 2030, a study commissioned by the European Commission (EC) has found.
Conducted by the EC’s DG Climate Action, the study focuses on the direct utilisation of wind-assisted propulsion for commercial ships.
Trusted information on the performance of such systems along with problematic access to capital for the development of this technology have been the main barriers so far, DG Climate Action noted.
