Implementation of energy efficiency management in shipping companies and ships in operation

Purpose: reasons for writing the paper is to present and explained implemented on board seaging vessels energy efficiency management and give an answer to question how SEEMPs are implemented and applied in day to day operation. Design/methodology/approach: an analysis of various shipping companies and ships Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plans. Findings: found that application of SEEMP are varied between shipping companies and is not very well known on board vessels. Research limitations/implications: SEEMP to be clearly explained to ships crew for better understanding and application in day to day operation. Practical implications: suggestion to Shipping Management Companies to simplify SEEMPs. Social implications: reduction of GHG emission. Originality/value: implementation of best practices to improve EEOI.
