Why your autopilot needs a Wind Mode
In the race to decarbonize shipping, we often focus on "hardware", sails or new fuels. But at D-ICE, our recent research shows that a major leap in efficiency lies in the "software". Specifically, it’s about how your autopilot handles the wind.By analyzing high-resolution data from a partner hybrid Ro-Ro vessel, we’ve proven that traditional "Heading Mode" steering leaves substantial fuel savings on the table, savings that our Wind Mode is designed to capture.
