Dutch maritime software company Arkitech has deployed its HVAC optimization platform across twelve MSC Cruises vessels, achieving average fuel savings of 1.5% per vessel. That translates to roughly one tonne of fuel saved per vessel per day, without hardware modifications or dry-docking.

We partnered with Nortech to enhance the seamless integration of the onboard HVAC system with our cloud software platform. By integrating Nortech’s data collection capabilities with Arkitech’s AI driven software platform, the collaboration helps ship operators to improve the energy efficiency of the onboard HVAC sytems while maintaining passenger and crew comfort.

Using real-time analytics, Arkitech’s turn-key solution enables up to 12% increase in chiller efficiency on board the luxury MSC Cruises ship. The gains equate to 1600 MWh yearly energy savings, equivalent to removing 687 electrical cars from European roads or removing the yearly energy consumption of 400 European homes
