Scope of this document


These guidance notes provide advice to owners, operators, shipyards and tank test organisations who are looking to prepare themselves for mandatory implementation of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). The guidance covers the following: Current status of the IMO regulations Responsibilities of the different parties involved in EEDI verification Information on what options are currently available for ensuring compliance

2.

EEDI Purpose
The EEDI is a design index, primarily applicable to new ships, that has been developed by the IMO and is to be used as a tool for control of CO2 emissions from ships. The IMO aims to improve the energy efficiency of ships via mandatory implementation of the EEDI.

3.

EEDI Application
The Regulations on Energy Efficiency relating to the EEDI and SEEMP are mandatory from 1st January 2013 within a new Chapter 4 of MARPOL Annex VI. Within the regulations, there remains the option for Administrations to adopt a waiver up to 4 years from the entry-into-force criteria. The EEDI affects new ships above 400 gross tonnes1 and applies to the ship types shown in Table 1 below. A ships attained EEDI (using the equation and verification procedure described in the following sections) must be equal to or less than the required EEDI for that ship type and size, which will be a function of the reference line value and a reduction factor X i.e.: Attained EEDI Required EEDI = (1-X/100) Reference line value The key documents and guidelines for the calculation and verification of the EEDI are summarised in Appendix 1.

At present excludes ships with steam turbine, diesel-electric and hybrid propulsion

Reference lines and reduction factors (required EEDI)


Reference lines
Reference lines have been developed by the IMO for a number of ship types. The EEDI reference lines refer to statistically average EEDI curves derived from data for existing ships. The reference lines are ship specific and dependent on ship type and size. Reference line values are calculated using the following table and equation: Reference line value = a b-c Ship type (as defined in MARPOL Annex VI Chapter 4, Regulation 2) Bulk carrier Gas carrier Tanker Container ship General cargo ship Refrigerated cargo carrier Combination carrier Passenger ship Ro-ro cargo ship Ro-ro passenger ship
Table 1: Parameters for determination of reference values for the different ship types (MARPOL Annex VI, Regulation 21)

Not initially subject to reference lines. Attained EEDI still needs to be calculated.

4.2

Reduction factors and implementation


Reduction factors will be used to implement the EEDI in phases so as to gradually reduce the required EEDI in much the same way as NOx and SOx limits. These reduction factors will apply to specific ship types and sizes given in Table 5 in the Appendix. Figure 1 shows the concept of how these reduction factors will be implemented over time.

The EEDI equation (attained EEDI)


The EEDI equation calculates the CO2 produced as a function of a ships transport work performed. In other words, the equation provides a measure of the ships benefit to society by establishing how much CO2 is produced per transport work done. This equates to g CO2 / tonne.nm. Figure 2 shows the EEDI calculation formula.

Transport work

Figure 2: EEDI equation

The top line of the EEDI equation is characterised by four key terms, whereby the energy saving technologies terms may include, for example, waste heat recovery systems, use of wind power or solar power. The CO2 produced is based on the product of the power, specific fuel consumption and carbon factor for a particular type of fuel used. The bottom line of the equation relates the total CO2 generated by each of the four terms, to ship capacity and speed. In addition, there are a series of correction factors that moderate the equation. These account for: Ship design factors (e.g. Ice-Class and shuttle tankers) Weather factor for decrease in speed in representative conditions Voluntary structural enhancement Ships built to Common Structural Rules (CSR) Capacity correction for chemical tankers and LNG ships The calculation of the EEDI is detailed within the 2012 Guidelines on the Method of Calculation of the Attained EEDI for New Ships (IMO Resolution MEPC.212(63) A list of parameters that have an effect on the EEDI is included in Appendix 4.

Verification processes for the attained EEDI


Verification of the EEDI is in two stages; pre-verification which commences at the design stage and final verification upon completion of the sea trials and commissioning. Details of the verification methodology are given in IMO resolution MEPC.214(63) and the overview process is shown below:

6.1

Pre-verification overview
Pre-verification at the design stage, requires model tests to obtain the ship predicted speed and power in the EEDI and sea trial condition and the development of an EEDI Technical File (EEDI-TF) containing necessary information to support the verification of the calculated Attained EEDI.

6.2

Final verification overview


Final verification of the Attained EEDI will normally be done based on completion of commissioning trials in order to determine the reference (EEDI) speed from corrected speed-power performance of the ship. This will be assessed using the IMO preferred standard of ITTC 7.5-04-01-01.2 or ISO 15016:2002 and speed trials should be carried out for at least three points (the range of which to include 75% MCR) for each ship in order to establish the reference (EEDI) speed for the calculation. If a trial is not possible under EEDI conditions, the results will have to be extrapolated by methods acceptable to the verifier. All verification will be carried out by an RO.

During the EEDI verification, the Classification Society will have to verify (review and witness) a number of documents and stages of the ship construction. These are summarised in Table 6 in the Appendices. A more detailed process containing the individual steps followed by Lloyds Register carrying out the EEDI verification is shown in Figure 6 in the Appendices.

7.2

Shipbuilder
The shipbuilder responsibilities at different steps of the EEDI process are outlined in Figure 3 above and in Figure 6 in the Appendices. In general, the shipbuilder shall: Ensure that the EEDI technical file is prepared in accordance with the IMO guidelines Provide to the verifier all supporting documents required in accordance with IMO guidelines. These are summarised in Table 2 and Table 3. It must be noted that although some documents (for example tank test reports) may originate from a third party it is the shipbuilders responsibility to obtain these documents and submit them to the verifier.

Implementing the Energy Efficiency Design Index Version 3.0, December 2012

Revise the EEDI technical file and/or other associated documents if found not to be in accordance with IMO guidelines Conduct the sea trial to an agreed standard, for example: ITTC 7.5-04-01-01.1 ISO 19019:2005

Perform the speed-power results analysis in accordance with the standards accepted by the IMO: ITTC 7.5-04-01-01.2 (IMO preferred method) ISO 15016:2002

Make all necessary arrangements for the verifier surveyors to attend the sea trial It is recognised that required IMO procedures for sea trial may differ than existing shipyard practices (e.g. the number of speed-power measurements and length of run). However, for the purposes of EEDI verification the IMO procedures must be followed, otherwise the Verifier may consider the sea trial invalid and, subsequently, be unable to issue an International Energy Efficiency Certificate (IEEC)

7.3

Tank test organisation


The tank test organisation has a key role in the pre-verification stage and the key responsibilities are summarised below: Provide the verifier with the information and access required in order to check its quality system. If previous experience is insufficiently demonstrated, the tank test facility should allow the verifier to possibly audit its quality management system. Provide the verifier with the documents required in accordance with the IMO guidelines, summarised in Table 2. Make all necessary arrangements for the verifier surveyors to attend part of the model tank tests which are directly related to the EEDI. Allow the verifier surveyor to check key points of the process in accordance with the Industry Guidelines (MEPC 64/INF22) and as summarised in Table 6. In particular, allow the verifier to check that the power curves at full scale are determined in a consistent way between sea trials and EEDI loading conditions, applying the same calculation process of the power curves and considering justifiable differences of experience based parameters between the two conditions.

Document submission requirements


Overall document submission responsibility
Although some of the documents contained below (e.g. tank test reports) may originate from a third party (e.g tank test organisation) it is the shipbuilders responsibility to request and ensure that these documents are submitted to the verifier.

8.2

Confidentiality issues
In line with the IMO Verification Guidelines (4.1.2), it is recognized that the documents listed above may contain confidential information of submitters, which requires Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection. In the case where the submitter requires a non-disclosure agreement with the verifier, the additional information should be provided to the verifier upon mutually agreed terms and conditions. In this case, Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) need to be signed between: The shipbuilder and the verifier, for information owned by the shipbuilder The tank test organisation and the verifier, for information owned by the tank test organisation facility

Technical methods for EEDI reduction


There are a number of technical methods, at present, that are being explored in order to help owners reduce the EEDI of their ships. All of these methods fall broadly under four key categories: Design Design for increased capacity and/or lighter ships; Innovative / renewable technologies, reducing all or significant portion of CO2 using mainly renewable energy; Technology Engine selection for speed reduction; Use of energy efficient technologies requiring less fuel for same amount of power; Operation Speed reduction Fuel Use of low carbon fuels. The table below describes some of the considerations in regard to some of the potential solutions for each of these methods. Technical method Potential solution Increase in deadweight Comments There may be scope for increasing the deadweight of a ship via reductions in lightweight or improved design. Consideration should be given to ensuring adequate structural safety margins if reducing design scantlings. Hull form resistance constitutes about 70% of the power consumed. Hull optimisation can yield significant fuel savings, especially if starting from a hydrodynamically poor hull. Improvements can be made to the bulbous bow, hullform, stern bulb, transom or appendages as required. In a strong headwind, aerodynamic drag can contribute more than 10% of the total ship resistance. For many vessel types, this loss can be significantly reduced through superstructure modifications, flow deflectors, fairings and bow visors. Wake field optimisation can improve propeller efficiency, reduce fuel consumption, and limit adverse cavitation effects such as erosion, noise and vibration. This is best achieved through local hull form modifications. The location of flow improvement devices on the hull or rudder can also be optimised Offers the potential for considerable CO2 savings. Investment is required in terms of installing propulsion systems e.g. sails and kite technology. Consideration needs to be given to any required structural enhancements to cater for increased loads. Reliance is placed on consistent wind conditions in order to benefit from this source of energy. Photovoltaic cells (solar panels) are another form of renewable

Comments energy that can offer significant CO2 and other emission reductions. The cost to benefit ratio of this source is quite high as a large area of cells are required to produce a small amount of power. At present, the efficiency of this technology means energy concentrations can augment power requirements but not replace a ships primary power source. This source of energy could remove all CO2, NOx and SOx emissions. Other benefits of this technology include smaller space requirements for the power source therefore potential for increased cargo capacity. Nuclear power is becoming more competitive given rising fuel oil prices although issues surrounding safety and disposal of nuclear waste remain. Many engine manufacturers now offer improved engine designs aimed at optimising performance. Many technologies are available off-the-shelf although can sometimes be difficult to quantify their benefits. Some, for example advanced hull coatings, are being increasingly used whereas waste heat recovery and hull-propeller systems could be used if their cost-effectiveness is improved. Slow steaming is very effective at reducing consumption and CO2 but may require the ship to operate outside its rated envelope meaning lower combustion temperatures and pressures leading to higher maintenance and possible increase in particulate matter emissions. Reducing the speed of the world fleet may also fuel the shift in freight transport to other modes such as land and air in order to maintain capacity. Demand is increasing from owners wishing to use this fuel. Replacing conventional marine fuel oil with LNG would potentially eliminate SOx emissions and drastically reduce NOx emissions whilst reducing CO2 by around 20%. LNG availability is limited in certain global areas with limited refuelling terminals and development of new terminals is linked to demand and vice versa. Other considerations of the use of LNG relate to safe use and the increased storage onboard in specialised tanks. Methane slip from LNG use is potentially more harmful than the benefits. An attractive alternative to marine diesel in terms of potential savings in CO2 emissions although the impact of bio-fuel production is not fully clear. Bio-diesel is expensive in comparison to marine diesel and the lower energy content means larger bunker tanks would be required onboard ships.

Appendix 3 IMO background on energy efficiency regulation


The International Maritime Organisation (IMO), as the main regulatory body for shipping, has, in recent years, devoted significant time and effort in order to regulate shipping energy efficiency and thereby control the marine GHG emissions. For this purpose, IMO has developed a number of technical and operational measures that include: Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI); Energy Efficiency Operational Index (EEOI); Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP). The IMO has also been working on a number of Market-Based Measures (MBMs) for the marine industry. The MBMs development is still ongoing. The EEDI represents one of the major technical regulations for marine CO2 reduction and the IMO, under the banner of the Marine Environmental Protection Committee (MEPC) and its associated Energy Efficiency working group, has been finalising the regulations and guidelines for the EEDI with input from each of the various flag states and other industry bodies. Figure 5 shows the MEPCs activity timeline.
