Projektowy wskaźnik efektywności energetycznej EEDI jako narzędzie do oceny efektywności na przykładzie statku do przewozu kontenerów

The International Maritime Organisation (IMO), in particular, dedicated to the prevention to marine pollution by ships, adopted in 2007 the provisions implementing the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). The EEDI was implemented as an amendment to the MARPOL Annex VI. The index specifies the technical standards and norms imposed on shipyards, which shall be intended to improve the energy efficiency of certain categories of new ships and vessels, consequently leading to the reduction of CO2 emission by around 25-35 percent till 2030. The paper presents the operational factors affecting fuel consumption and energy efficiency indexes of a ship, the algorithm of verification and certification of the EDDI along with exemplary calculations for a container ship.
