Energy Efficiency Design Index Verification through Actual Power and Speed Correlation

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) mandatory requirement for Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) has been in place since 01 January 2015 to address emission and global warming concerns. This regulation must be satisfied by newly-built ships with 400 gross tonnages and above. In addition, the MEPC-approved 2013 guidance, ISO 15016 and ISO 19019 on EEDI serves the purpose for calculation and verification of attained EEDI value.
