Anemoi Rotor Sail Installation on TR Lady Kamsarmax bulker vessel ANEMOI 2023-08-25 | *First Kamsarmax installed with Rotor Sails expected to save more than 10% fuel and emissions annually*TR Lady bulk carrier vessel, owned by a portfolio company of Tufton Investment Management, was retrofitted with three 5×24m Rotor Sails by leading wind-propulsion provider Anemoi Marine Technologies Ltd. The technology was installed on Anemoi’s unique and patented transverse rail deployment system. This system enables the sails, which are fixed to the centre line during voyages, to be moved port or starboard when berthed for cargo operations, meaning loading and unloading can continue without being obstructed.Rotor Sails, also known as ‘Flettner Rotors’, are vertical cylinders which, when driven to rotate, harness the renewable power of the wind to provide additional forward thrust. These highly efficient mechanical sails capitalise on the aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Magnus Effect and will deliver significant fuel and emission savings to TR Lady.

These highly efficient mechanical sails capitalise on the aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Magnus Effect to provide additional thrust to vessels. By leveraging wind energy, Berge Neblina will see increased efficiency by reducing the load on the main engine while maintaining speed, therefore substantially reducing fuel consumption and resulting in less greenhouse gas emissions.

Berge Bulk vessels to receive Anemoi Rotor Sails ANEMOI 2022-07-13 | We’re pleased to announce that Berge Bulk will be installing Anemoi Rotor Sails on its bulker fleet! Berge Neblina, a 388k DWT Valemax Ore Carrier, and Berge Mulhacen, a 210k DWT Newcastlemax, will both be installed with 4 of Anemoi’s 3x35m folding Rotor Sails. These projects are a testament to Berge Bulk’s dedication to sustainable shipping and we’re delighted to be working with them on their decarbonisation journey. Rotor Sails harness the free and completely renewable power of the wind to provide forward propulsion to ships, lowering fuel consumption and harmful emissions.
What are Rotor Sails and how do they work? ANEMOI 2021-10-25 | Anemoi is a supplier of Rotor Sail technology to the global shipping industry. In this video we explain what Rotor Sails are and how they work. Rotor Sails, also known as Flettner Rotors, are modern mechanical sails that harness wind power to create additional thrust for ships. This allows the ship to maintain speed but power down its main engine, resulting in less fuel consumed and fewer emissions entering our atmosphere.
Anemoi are partnering with Lloyd’s Register & SDARI ship design to create Rotor Sail vessel designs ANEMOI 2020-11-27 | Anemoi Marine Technologies (Anemoi) has signed a joint development project (JDP) with Lloyd’s Register (LR) and Shanghai Merchant Ship Design and Research Institute (SDARI) to develop a series of new energy efficient vessel designs equipped with Rotor Sails.By bringing together the original equipment manufacturer, designer, regulator and shipowner, we’re breaking down potential barriers and forming a path for the commercial success of installed Rotor Sail technology onboard ships.Read more - anemoimarine.com/anemoi-are-partnering-with-lloyd%E2%80%99s-register-and-sdari-ship-design-to-create-aip-certified-rotor-sail-vessel-designs
