TECO 2030 sells its first Future Funnel

The Future Funnel allows ships to reduce sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides, black carbon, and particulate matter emissions. The TECO 2030 Future Funnel has been developed by TECO 2030 in cooperation with the Austrian powertrain company AVL.

The contract value is approx. NOK 5.5 million with an estimated delivery at the end of Q1, beginning of Q2 2023.

The project will be handled by TECO 2030’s team at Lysaker, and engineering service company BLOM Maritime, a TECO Maritime Group company. The future funnel is a TECO 2030 Model 8 and is one of the towers TECO 2030 already has in stock.

TECO 2030 says its advantages include:

• High SOx removal efficiency up to 99.9%
• Able to run both dry and wet
• Low maintenance and easy operation
• Possibility to be installed during voyages, only quick dock is needed for sea-chest and overboard installation
• Adaptable for future emission legislations
• Open-loop, hybrid, and hybrid ready systems
• Adaptable design to all ships, and all engine types with minimal modification impact
• Low CAPEX and OPEX.

“I am confident that this will spark the second wave for scrubbers, as the fuel price gap is stabilising again after almost three years with a global pandemic and three years since the introduction of the global sulphur cap implemented by the IMO,” says Tore Enger, Group CEO, TECO 2030.
