HSD to resell MAN EEXI Compliance solutions

Effective immediately, the agreement is set to run for an initial period of two years.

MAN Energy Solutions offers three different EEXI solutions, including the development of overridable power limitation (OPL) to meet the vast majority of shipowners’ desire for a simple, economical solution that will comply with the impending regulation.

Under the terms of the agreement, HSD will resell MAN Energy Solutions’ solutions for EEXI compliance for all HSD-manufactured, MAN B&W-branded ME and MC engines where customers will have three different options depending on where they stand in their compliance. Customers can choose to purchase EEXI Full if they require a complete package with OPL and an assessment report; or EEXI File if their vessels have already reached the EEXI limit but still require EEXI certification for compliance; or lastly, EEXI Flex if they already have a completed assessment report – either performed by a third party or themselves – and just require an OPL solution. To accommodate customers as quickly as possible, HSD will install the OPL solution on all such units themselves.

Jens Seeberg, Senior Manager and Head of Retrofit & Upgrade, PrimeServ Denmark, said: “It is of paramount importance for MAN Energy Solutions that we address decarbonisation in the maritime industry by developing cost-efficient and regulatory-compliant solutions. Our collaboration with our licensees to achieve EEXI compliance for vessels already in service is testament to our commitment to attain a net-zero emission future. This cooperation agreement with HSD provides shipowners with easy access to compliancy and in an affordable fashion.”

In February, MAN Energy Solutions signed a cooperation agreement with Hyundai Global Services to deliver its OPL solution to MAN B&W-branded low-speed engines manufactured by Hyundai Heavy Industries Engine & Machinery Division.
