A consortium led by ABS has been granted EU funding for a study on the future of the Ship Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). ABS, Vessel Performance Solutions (VPS), and Arcsilea Ltd formed a consortium to deliver the study titled: Decarbonisation of Shipping: Technical Study on the future of the Ship Energy Efficiency Design Index. The study will analyze EEDI's ability to deliver improved designs and evaluate its relationship to various technologies. The study is intended to return preliminary results ahead of MEPC 76 in October this year and be concluded in early 20201. More information: ABS
