2.1 For the purpose of these guidelines, the following
definitions should apply:
-
.1
Available effective power is the
multiplication of effective power Peff and availability
factor feff as defined in the EEDI calculation.
-
.2
Wind propulsion systems belong
to innovative mechanical energy efficient technologies which reduce
the CO2 emissions of ships. These proposed guidelines apply
to wind propulsion technologies that directly transfer mechanical
propulsion forces to the ship's structure (sails, wings, kites, etc.).
-
.3
Global wind probability matrix contains
data of the global wind power on the main global shipping routes based
on a statistical survey of worldwide wind data. A detailed determination
of the global wind probability matrix can be found in a separate submission
(INF paper).
