S@IL project

S@IL (Sustainable Approaches and Innovative Liaisons) is a European INTERREG project, which ended in June 2015 and whose aim was to promote hybrid shipping in the North Sea. This region is one of the most active in the fishing and maritime transport. It is also largely affected by pollution of the exhaust gases of ships.

AVT has worked to improve the environmental performance of existing vessels, particularly in the second generation and soft wing–sails.
