E-ferry – prototype and full-scale demonstration of next generation 100% electrically powered ferry for passengers and vehicles (E-ferry)
Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2019,
E-ferry addresses the urgent need for reducing European CO2 emissions and air pollution from waterborne transportation by demonstrating the feasibility of a 100% electrically powered, emission free, medium sized ferry for passengers and cars, trucks and cargo relevant to island communities, coastal zones and inland waterways. The vessel will be based on a newly developed, energy efficient design c ...

EfficienSea 2 - Efficient, Safe and Sustainable Traffic at Sea (EfficienSea 2)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2018,
The trend in navigational accidents no longer appears to decrease. In a Formal Safety Assessment (IMO NAV59-6, Annex 1) 5.544 navigational and 7.275 other accidents resulted in the loss of 6.264 lives (2001-2010). The coincide of EU policies on safer and more efficient waterborne operations and in particular the e-maritime initiative with IMO’s strategy for e-navigation opens a unique window of op ...

GOAL Based Damage Stability (GOALDS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
"The new probabilistic damage stability regulations for dry cargo and passenger ships (SOLAS 2009), which entered into force on January 1, 2009, represent a major step forward in achieving an improved safety standard through the rationalization and harmonization of damage stability requirements. There are, however, serious concerns regarding the adopted formulation for the calculation of the survi ...
