پکسیس اوقیانوس, a dry bulk ship owned by Mitsubishi Corp and chartered by Cargill, set sail on its first voyage since being outfitted with WindWings, a form of technology that uses wind power to cut down on energy usage and emissions. Pyxis Ocean is a Panamax-sized ship, with a carrying capacity of 80,962 DWT. Its maiden voyage comes as the maritime industry, which accounts for almost 3% of global CO2 emissions, explores different technologies to move away from bunker fuel.

ونڈ ونگز are large sails built with the same materials as wind turbines, and designed as a supplemental source of power for large vessels, with the potential to cut fuel costs up to 30%. BAR Technologies, who helped develop WindWings, said they will allow shippers to save up to 1.5 tons of fuel per WindWing daily, according to Offshore Energy.

“The maritime industry is on a journey to de-carbonize. It’s not an easy one, but it is an exciting one,” said Jan Dieleman, president of کارگل’s Ocean Transportation business. “At Cargill, we have a responsibility to pioneer de-carbonizing solutions across all our supply chains to meet our customer’s needs and the needs of the planet. A technology like WindWings doesn’t come without risk, and as an industry leader — in partnership with visionary shipowner Mitsubishi Corporation — we are not afraid to invest, take those risks and be transparent with our learnings to help our partners in maritime transition to a more sustainable future.”

BAR Technologies and Yara Marine Technologies, which assisted with the production of the WindWings, are planning to build hundreds of more wings over the next four years.
