Reshaping the future
We are Drivers of the Energy Transition
Fighting climate change and succeeding in the energy transition are two of the biggest challenges humanity faces in the 21st century. At SkySails, we strive to play our part in tackling them. It is what motivates us to provide sustainable solutions for crucial sectors with a high impact:
Green Energy
We are all consuming more and more energy. To ensure the energy transition succeeds, we must make maximum use of every available renewable resource. Among these, wind power is one of the most cost-efficient, abundant, and environmentally friendly. Thanks to SkySails’ technology, we can now tap into energy-rich, high-altitude wind reservoirs for the very first time – a source of power that remained inaccessible until today.
Clean Shipping
Today, maritime emissions account for around three percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. The shipping industry is one of the largest polluters in the world. As international trade increases, these emissions will continue to rise as well. But we can cut down on harmful greenhouse gases by reducing fuel consumption on ships through new solutions and technologies. SkySails offers diverse hardware and software solutions that make shipping cleaner. Our towing kites pull cargo ships to save up to 10 tons of oil per day. And our performance monitoring optimizes ship operations, further helping to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
