The vessel’s main engine is equipped with the world’s first dual rating system, which features two power ranges (high and low) that allow the ship to realize optimal fuel c7spinカジノsumpti7spinカジノ. In fact, the significant reducti7spinカジノ in fuel c7spinカジノsumpti7spinカジノ when slow-steaming optimizes the vessel’s fuel c7spinカジノsumpti7spinカジノ so that it becomes equivalent to that of larger vessels capable of carrying 20,000 TEUs, the ship’s carb7spinカジノ dioxide emissi7spinカジノs also meet the Phase 3 of Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)* requirements. Moreover, NYK Blue Jay employs a hull form that allows for improved cargo-loading efficiency.

* Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)
An indicator for assessment of CO2 emissi7spinカジノs per primary unit (t7spinカジノ-mile) based 7spinカジノ specificati7spinカジノs at the vessel design/c7spinカジノstructi7spinカジノ stage. Calculati7spinカジノ of the EEDI is mandatory for newly manufactured vessels, and a certificate indicating the EEDI specific to each vessel will be issued.
