Advances in Quantifying the Efficiency of Energy Consumption, Conversion, and Transmission on Merchant Ships Andrii Holovan, Iryna Honcharuk Future Transportation, 2026 Improving the efficiency of energy consumption, conversion, and transmission on merchant ships has become a critical challenge due to rising fuel costs, increasingly stringent environmental regulations, and the introduction of operational efficiency requirements such as the IMO CII. Existing energy-efficiency metrics are predominantly based on absolute or design-oriented indicators and do not adequately capture the latent reserves of energy savings embedded in ship energy systems. This study addresses this gap by proposing a methodological framework for quantifying energy efficiency through the concept of relative energy-saving potential. The proposed approach integrates ship energy balance analysis with a hierarchical assessment of relative theoretical, technical, and economically feasible energy-saving potentials. The framework is demonstrated using an illustrative numerical example for a representative medium-size product tanker. The presented calculations are intended to demonstrate the applicability of the methodology rather than to provide vessel-specific operational recommendations. The results indicate that a significant share of energy losses can be identified and reduced by technical and economic feasibility considerations. The study concludes that relative energy-saving potentials offer an effective and scalable foundation for ship energy management, supporting SEEMP implementation, CII compliance strategies, and integration into digital twin and AI-based energy management systems.
Smart Routing for Sustainable Shipping: A Review of Trajectory Optimization Approaches in Waterborne Transport Yevgeniy Kalinichenko, Sergey Rudenko, Andrii Holovan, Nadiia Vasalatii, Anastasiia Zaiets, et al. Sustainability Switzerland, 2025 Smart routing has emerged as a critical enabler of sustainable shipping, addressing the growing demand for energy-efficient, safe, and adaptive vessel navigation in both maritime and inland waterborne transport. This review examines the current landscape of trajectory optimization approaches by analyzing selected peer-reviewed studies and categorizing them into six thematic areas: AI/ML-based prediction, optimization and path planning algorithms, data-driven methods using AIS and GIS, weather routing and environmental modeling, digital platforms and decision support systems, and hybrid or rule-based frameworks for autonomous navigation. The analysis highlights recent advances in deep learning for trajectory forecasting, multi-objective and heuristic optimization techniques, and the use of real-time environmental data in routing decisions. Supplemental review using Scopus-based topic mapping confirms the centrality of integrated digital strategies, high-performance computing, and physics-informed modeling in emerging research. Despite notable progress, the field remains fragmented, with limited real-time integration, underexplored regulatory alignment, and a lack of explainable AI applications. The review concludes by outlining future directions, including the development of hybrid and interpretable optimization frameworks, and expanding research tailored to inland navigation with its distinct operational challenges. These insights aim to support the design of next-generation navigation systems that are robust, intelligent, and environmentally compliant.
