Diesel Engine Efficiency and Emissions ~ Time for action
The climate calls out, health issues abound, regulators are writing legislation faster than the operators can comply and the maritime and land based power community pushes for increased efficiency to improve it's bottom line. Sound familiar? What we have here is what I often call the "All horn and no drive shaft" approach. Everyone wants results however, no one wants to fund whats needed to prove the technology. We've seen diesel propulsion come full circle so let's see how we can get these issues off center, prove the technology that can deal with it through independent research and testing and leave the simple ROI calculations to the ship owners.
