The SEASTARS Project is setting new standards in maritime sustainability! As an ambitious EU-funded initiative, SEASTARS is driving the decarbonization of inland, short-sea, and high-seas shipping by integrating cutting-edge retrofitting and newbuild solutions that reduce emissions and boost efficiency.
Our Goals:
- 30% reduction in well-to-wake GHG emissions by 2030 (compared to 2008)
- 20% energy efficiency improvement (compared to 2022)
How?
- Hydrodynamic Enhancements – Propeller-hull optimization, air lubrication systems
- Machinery Innovations – Fuel cells, electric motors, wind-assisted propulsion, solar panels
- Alternative Fuels & Energy Systems – Biofuels, hydrogen, methanol, LNG, ammonia, CCS
Industry-Centric Innovation
SEASTARS integrates Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and design thinking workshops to ensure solutions are practical, scalable, and investment-friendly for shipowners and operators.
Driving Real-World Impact
SEASTARS isn’t just about innovation—it’s about bringing the maritime industry together to create viable, long-term decarbonization pathways. Through targeted stakeholder engagement and policy alignment, we’re ensuring that technology adoption meets industry realities.
