The Energy Efficiency White Paper provides ship owners and operators with an overview of the latest on energy efficiency measures for marine vessels, discussing how the technology works, potential fuel savings, applicability to various vessels types, and lifecycle costs.  The Paper provides a basis upon which owners and operators can evaluate potential investments in efficiency measures and technologies. The white paper was developed through the Ship Operations Cooperative Program (SOCP) with funding from the Maritime Administration’s Maritime Environmental and TechnicalAssistance (META) Program.
