DNV GL ECO Insight: Incentive Provider for Enviro Ship Index

 

DNV GL offers a 50 per cent discount on the subscription to its ECO Insight Environmental module.

 

“We are very pleased that the ideas underlying ESI are getting greater recognition from the industry and attracting a broader range of incentive providers,” says Fer van de Laar, Director of the World Ports Climate Initiative (WPCI). 

 

“Since it joined the ESI in February 2016, DNV GL ECO Insight has moved up to number 43 in the global ranking of incentive providers,”Fer van added.

 

“The ECO Insight portal provides ESI reports and scores as an automated service, without creating additional work for the crew or onshore staff and therefore helps shipping companies to more easily participate in projects such as the ESI. Supporting ESI customers in complying with reporting requirements both helps their bottom line and improves the shipping industry’s environmental footprint.” adds Torsten Büssow, Head of Fleet Performance Management at DNV GL – Maritime.

 

 ECO Insight can also help companies which have not yet achieved the targets they need to receive ESI incentives. “Environmental reporting should be an automatic delivery of any good fleet performance management solution,” he adds.

 

ECO Insight has attracted some 700 vessels since its launch in January 2015, making it the leading performance solution on the market. It helps shipping companies to understand and correct performance issues on vessels, including voyage performance, hull & propeller performance, engine & systems performance and fuel quality. 

 

It automatically produces environmental KPIs and reports from the system on emissions or disposals and supports schemes like ESI, Clean Cargo Working Group (CCWG), Clean Shipping Index (CSI) and the upcoming EU Monitoring, Reporting, Verification (MRV).
