Maritime administration personnel, shipowners, and operators now have an invaluable resource to grasp the intricacies of the Energy Efficiency eXisting Ship Index (EEXI). The Global Industry Alliance to Support Low Carbon Shipping (Low Carbon GIA) has launched an engaging series of videos that shed light on EEXI requirements and procedures. The imo source.
- New video series educates maritime professionals on Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) regulations.
- Short 10-12 minute videos explain EEXI requirements, compliance options, calculation methods, and quiz-based learning.
- Low Carbon GIA’s initiative aids shipowners and administrations in meeting energy efficiency standards and IMO’s GHG reduction strategy.
Unveiling the Video Series
The educational series, offered free of charge online, comprises concise 10 to 12-minute videos. These dynamic visuals delve into critical aspects such as the correlation between EEXI and EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index), compliance options, calculation methods for attained and required EEXI, and the mechanics of survey and certification.
Empowering Maritime Expertise
Minglee Hoe, Technical Analyst of the IMO-Norway GreenVoyage2050 Project, emphasizes the importance of these support tools. By bolstering the knowledge of maritime administrations and shipowners/operators about EEXI, the industry gains a powerful tool to align with the IMO GHG strategy and fulfill energy efficiency requirements.
Application
As a compulsory regulation under MARPOL Annex VI, EEXI came into effect in January 2023, forming a crucial facet of IMO’s short-term GHG reduction agenda. The attained EEXI of a ship signifies its energy efficiency compared to a baseline, with the requirement being a set percentage below the baseline EEDI value.
Empowerment through Knowledge
Developed within the Energy efficiency technologies (EETs) and operational best practices workstream of the Low Carbon GIA, this comprehensive video series empowers maritime stakeholders to not only understand but excel in meeting EEXI standards. As the maritime industry continues its drive toward sustainable practices, this resource stands as a beacon of information and progress.
