Japanese shipping company Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) and US-based Chevron Shipping Company will integrate the state-of-the-art wind-powered propulsion system into the LNG (liquefied natural gas) vessel. According to the companies, It will be the world's first LNG ship with wind-powered technology.

The 174,000 cubic meter vessel, chartered by Chevron Asia Pacific Shipping, is being built in South Korea. 2026 It is planned to be delivered in the year.

Developed by MOL Wind Challenger Telescopic sails in the named technology, the ship's reducing fuel consumption It will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions. According to the company, the technology combines automatic sail control with a real-time wind monitoring system to improve fuel efficiency.

Weight saving with composite material

Sails, light weight to maintain the cargo capacity of the ship fibre glass reinforced plastic (GFRP) is manufactured. There is not a lot of weight on the ship. Sails also to maintain balance in choppy weather It can shrink down. In this way, the center of gravity is pulled down, providing the same security as traditional ships.

Wind Challenger combines three key components to optimize ship routes and further improve fuel efficiency: sails, control system and weather route.

In fuel consumption %Up to 17 ⁇ reduction achieved

In October 2022, MOL launched Shofu Maru ⁇ yu, a 100,000-metric-tonne coal carrier equipped with Wind Challenger. The ship has completed 7 round trips for 18 months and is in daily fuel consumption. %A reduction of up to 17 ⁇ He got and Average per voyage %From 5 to %A reduction of 8 was achieved.

The company says the Wind Challenger system can be fitted to both newly built and existing vessels, from dry cargo ships to tankers and LNG carriers. can be mounted on various ships more than once He says it. MOL plans to launch 25 ships equipped with Wind Challenger technology by 2030 and another 25 by 2035. of 80 ships. He plans to deploy.

Stellantis gave a remarkable performance at IAA Transportation 2024, one of the largest trade fairs in Europe, with its commercial vehicle unit Pro One. At the fair held in Hannover, he introduced commercial vehicles with hydrogen fuel cell technology. The company, which draws attention with its investments in sustainable mobility solutions, especially with its hydrogen-powered medium-sized minibuses, is preparing to include large-sized minibuses in its product range in a short time.

Stellantis introduces hydrogen fuel cell commercials!

Stellantis Pro One is approaching zero emissions targets step by step thanks to its new minibus series with hydrogen fuel cell technology. These vehicles, which can be refueled in just 5 minutes and offer a range of more than 500 kilometers, increase efficiency in the commercial transportation sector and reduce the negative effects on the environment. Stellantis is also the first manufacturer in Europe to offer hydrogen-powered minibuses.

Another important innovation introduced at the fair was the Multijet 4.0 engine developed by Stellantis ⁇ . This engine reduces CO2 emissions in commercial vehicles by up to 10 per cent, while at the same time delivering high performance.

The new AT8 automatic transmission, on the other hand, stands out with its features that increase driving comfort and provide more efficient gear shifts. This new transmission promotes environmentally friendly solutions in commercial vehicles by offering lower emissions and higher fuel savings.

Stellantis Pro One attracted the attention of visitors by displaying its wide range of products with models such as Opel Movano HYDROGEN and ultra-compact Opel Rocks Electric. All of these vehicles feature hydrogen fuel cell technology, with long range and short refueling times. In addition, the company introduced environmentally friendly and practical vehicles in urban transportation with micro mobility solutions.

Stellantis, which also exhibits its converted commercial vehicles at the fair, offers personalized solutions that respond to the needs of professional customers. Developed in collaboration with certified partners, these vehicles provide their users with reliable, efficient and practical transportation solutions.

Especially these vehicles, which offer longer range and faster refueling without sacrificing loading capacity, are reshaping the future of commercial transportation. With more than 250 hydrogen stations located throughout Europe, the transition to this technology is accelerating, and Stellantis is at the center of this transformation.
