Swedish industry experts developing AI-powered ship operations system to cut emissions December 15, 2020, by Jasmina Ovcina Lean Marine and AI-application developers Molflow have joined forces with the Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg to develop an AI-powered, semi-autonomous system for planning and executing sea voyages. The Via Kaizen project is funded by the Swedish Transport Administration, Trafikverket, and is being coordinated by CIT Industriell Energi AB. The project, which aims to help execute more energy efficient sea voyages, started in August 2020. It builds on Lean Marine’s FuelOpt and Fleet Analytics technology and Molflow’s Slipstream technology which enable a higher degree of digitalization and automation in vessel operations.
