Objective With climate change coming to the forefront of society’s perception, there is increasing pressure on all industries to CO2 emissions through increased efficiency and the maritime industry is no exception. The objective of ULYSSES is to demonstrate, through a combination of ultra slow speeds and complementary technologies, that the efficiency of the world fleet can be increased to a point where the following CO2 targets are met :• Before 2020, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 30% compared to 1990 levels.• Beyond 2050, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80% compared to 1990 levels.ULYSSES focuses on bulk carriers and tankers as these ship types produce 60% of the CO2 from ocean-going vessels . As bulk carriers and tankers are reasonably similar in design and operation, it is felt that investigating these ships will give the best value for money in terms of potential impact of the project. Additionally, it is more technically challenging to reduce the speed of these ship types as they are relatively slow speed already and therefore it is expected that directional stability and other seakeeping issues will arise. However, the results of the project will be directly transferable to other ship types.To achieve these goals, it is expected that the target speeds will be:• Phase I - Existing vessel in 2020: ~10 knots• Phase II - New vessel built in 2020: ~7.5 knots• Phase III - New vessel built in 2050: ~5 knots Fields of science engineering and technologymechanical engineeringvehicle engineeringnaval engineeringsea vessels Programme(s) FP7-TRANSPORT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Transport (including Aeronautics) Topic(s) SST.2010.1.1-2. - Energy efficiency of ships SST.2010.5.1-1. - Improved through-life asset management through application of advanced production, retrofit and dismantling processes Call for proposal FP7-SST-2010-RTD-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP-FP - Small or medium-scale focused research project Coordinator BUREAU VERITAS SA Address 40-52 boulevard du parc immeuble newtime 92200 Neuilly sur seine France See on map Region Ile-de-France Ile-de-France Hauts-de-Seine Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Pierre Maurier (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window EU contribution € 435 695,00 Participants (13) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all ALVEUS DOO ZA SAVJETOVANJE I INZENJERING Croatia EU contribution € 250 358,00 Address Kvaternikova 62b 51000 Rijeka See on map Region Hrvatska Jadranska Hrvatska Primorsko-goranska županija Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Alan Klanac (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window CENTRE DE RECHERCHE POUR L'ARCHITECTURE ET L'INDUSTRIE NAUTIQUES France EU contribution € 165 382,00 Address Rue senac de meilhan 52 17000 La rochelle See on map Region Nouvelle-Aquitaine Poitou-Charentes Charente-Maritime Activity type Other Administrative Contact Philippe Pallu De La Barriere (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window CHALMERS TEKNISKA HOGSKOLA AB Sweden EU contribution € 218 340,00 Address - 412 96 Goteborg See on map Region Södra Sverige Västsverige Västra Götalands län Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Birgitta Oscár (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window SOFARTSSTYRELSEN Participation ended Denmark EU contribution € 0,00 Address Fjordvaenget 30 4220 Korsor See on map Region Danmark Sjælland Vest- og Sydsjælland Activity type Public bodies (excluding Research Organisations and Secondary or Higher Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Jeppe Juhl (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window DANMARKS TEKNISKE UNIVERSITET Denmark EU contribution € 256 200,00 Address Anker engelunds vej 101 2800 Kongens lyngby See on map Region Danmark Hovedstaden Københavns omegn Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Ib Misfeldt (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Euronav Ship Management France EU contribution € 28 700,00 Address Avenue jacques cartier bat 1 parc heliopolis 1107 44800 Saint herblain See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Maren Schroder (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window DNV GL SE Germany EU contribution € 193 815,00 Address Brooktorkai 18 20457 Hamburg See on map Region Hamburg Hamburg Hamburg Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Peter Koopmann (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window SSPA SWEDEN AB Sweden EU contribution € 298 207,00 Address Chalmers tvargata 10 400 22 Goteborg See on map Region Södra Sverige Västsverige Västra Götalands län Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Ann-Kristin Cederholm (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window NEDERLANDSE ORGANISATIE VOOR TOEGEPAST NATUURWETENSCHAPPELIJK ONDERZOEK TNO Netherlands EU contribution € 151 980,00 Address Anna van buerenplein 1 2595 DA Den haag See on map Region West-Nederland Zuid-Holland Agglomeratie ’s-Gravenhage Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact J.
