Green Maritime

Core Features

Green Maritime's methodology is built on integrating operational technology with legal compliance frameworks. It employs an activity-based calculation approach, processing real-time data from onboard IoT sensors such as fuel consumption, speed, and weather conditions. This live data stream forms the factual basis for accurate emissions reporting as required by EU regulations. The following capabilities are engineered to execute this methodology:

• Regulatory Documentation Generator: Facilitates the creation and submission of mandatory compliance documents, specifically the MRV Monitoring Plan, which must be verified and submitted to authorities for each ship.

• Live Vessel Performance Dashboard: Provides a centralized, easy-to-use interface to monitor real-time data for each ship, including current fuel consumption, position, voyage details, and key MRV metrics across mobile and desktop devices.

• Voyage Optimization Analysis: Uses processed data on weather, waves, and speed to analyze and suggest adjustments to daily planning, aiming to reduce total fuel usage and operational time without compromising schedules.

• End-to-End Implementation Service: Offers to manage the full installation of necessary IoT measurement equipment directly on client vessels, handling the technical setup to ensure correct data collection.

• Expert-Led Compliance Assurance: A team of maritime and legal professionals monitors regulatory changes, ensuring the platform's calculations and reporting outputs are continuously updated to maintain compliance with evolving rules like the EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime.

• Dedicated Consultancy Option: Provides a full-service MRV consultancy package where the company's experts take complete responsibility for the entire monitoring, reporting, and verification process on behalf of the shipowner.

Closing Insights

Green Maritime originated from founder Bart Schut's experience with the administrative burdens of the shipping industry. The platform is strategically positioned for a specific regulatory wave. It is aimed at small and medium-sized ship operators based in or frequently traveling to EU member states (plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway), who must comply with the expanding EU MRV scheme. From 2025, this includes general cargo and offshore ships between 400 and 5,000 gross tonnage. It is equally relevant for compliance with the EU ETS, where shipping companies must surrender costly allowances for their CO₂ emissions, with methane and nitrous oxide to be included from 2026.

For shipowners, Green Maritime represents a turnkey solution to a mandatory and financially consequential problem. While specific subscription fees are not listed, the value proposition is clear: reduce the risk of non-compliance penalties—which can reach €100 per tonne of excess emissions—and internal administrative cost. The offer of full-service consultancy, combined with the software's live optimization insights would appeal to operators who prefer to outsource regulatory complexity entirely and focus resources on running their ships.
