Our Solution
Our unique morphing wings achive optimum performance using robust and low cost construction
How It Works
Advanced Wing Systems solves the “split incentive” problem in wind propulsion by aligning the commercial drivers of the ship owners and charterers

Ship Owners
Shipowners can retrofit vessels with low-cost, rapidly deployable, deck frames to become “Wing Ready”. There is no major capital outlay.
The custom deck frames install without dry-docking, allowing fast, low-cost retrofitting with minimal disruption to the ships schedule.

Charterers
Charterers rent the wing sails, which are housed within standard 40ft containers, and fitted to the deck frames.
Charterers only pay for the propulsion energy delivered, calculated as a fuel-equivalent

Higher Average Fuel Savings
Our Wings perform more efficiently - more often
Most vessels sail with wind angles well forward of the beam—where AWS wings still generate thrust, unlike many systems.
Morphing wing technology ensures optimal shape and performance at all times.
