London-based shipping data provider, VesselsValue has announced its latest Green product that allows clients to access, customise and compare vessels’ Energy Efficiency ratings.
This new feature combines VesselsValue extensive shipping data with the IMO’s framework to calculate the Energy Efficiency score for an individual vessel, whether existing (EEXI) or a newbuild (EEDI), according to a statement.
This new tool is available across container shipping, bulker and tanker sectors, with the flexibility to customise inputs to recalculate a vessel’s EEDI or EEXI score and compare ratings across fleets.
“As the world moves towards decarbonisation, our Energy Efficiency ratings provide a transparent, automated and accurate measure of how Green a vessel is,” said Tom Evans, Chief Operating Officer at VesselsValue, adding, “This product, when combined with our eight Tier Ownership and Transactions databases, enables users to aggregate and compare Energy Efficiency across multiple fleets, geographies, trades or portfolios.”
VesselsValue said that its customers will be able to search and filter by Green vessel specifications including engine, propulsion and fuel type, hull design, energy saving devices, green awards and IHM green passport, BWTS, scrubber and previous employment in renewable activity.
“Our clients, including major banks, funds, owners, operators or charterers, have a genuine desire to monitor, report on and maximise vessels’ Energy Efficiency to comply with and exceed regulations. We are proud to be able to assist our clients on their path to decarbonisation and will continue to invest heavily in developing more Green related products,” commented Adrian Economakis, Chief Strategy Officer at VesselsValue.
