The International Windship Association urges heads of state to recognize the role of wind propulsion to decarbonize the maritime sector.
The International Windship Association (IWSA) has issued an open letter to the Heads of State and delegates attending the 28th Conference of the Parti...
Cargo ships equipped with massive rigid sails called WindWings could save a substantial amount of fuel, considering how much of the world's goods are transported by sea.
"Well over a century after the Age of Sail gave way to coal- and oil-burning ships, climate change concerns are prompting a new look at an old technology that could once again harness wind to propel commercial cargo ships — this time with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions."
Almost all nations have come to an agreement to stop adding emissions from shipping to the atmosphere by the year 2050, a target that largely depends on zero-carbon fuels, including ammonia.
