This task 4.4 “Living Lab 3 Baleària RO-PAX – Centric Digital Twin” aims to provide a Digital Twin of a RO-PAX vessel, in which Baleària will define, design and deploy the main Operational Optimization applications for this kind of vessels, which can enhance to reduce consumption and emissions, by exploring the following use cases: Voyage optimization (including: route planning, weather routing, speed optimization, JIT arrivals, bunkering optimization, etc), Trim optimization or Hull degradation, among others. Also, during this project Baleària will evaluate different areas for the study of shipping decarbonization retrofitting solutions such us the use of carbon neutral fuels, energy production, energy storage, thermal energy recovery and more. On the last stage of the project, Baleària will support the definition of a future zero-emission ROPAX vessel and will validate simulation models.
