The Perfect Balance: Emission Reduction through Trim Optimization

The global shipping industry plays a crucial role in our interconnected world, but it also faces a significant challenge: reducing its contribution to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Shipping accounts for 2-3% of global GHG emissions, nearly equivalent to Germany, the world's sixth biggest emitter. This figure is under increased scrutiny by international organizations, and the latest targets set by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) highlight the urgency for emission reduction, aiming for net zero by 2050.
