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

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

  • Benefits Owners + Operators

    Benefits Owners + Operators

    Ship Owners can offer "wind ready" green ships at low cost

    Charterers only commit for the length of their charter contract

    The sail modules can be redeployed and have a longer life than ship and charter

Higher Average Fuel Savings

Our Wings perform more efficiently - more often

Most vessels sail with wind angles well forward of the beamwhere AWS wings still generate thrust, unlike many systems.

Morphing wing technology ensures optimal shape and performance at all times.
