Success factors

Motivation and involvement of key people of the crew and onshore fleet management is an essential element in implementing energy management. For maximum benefits, some sort of recognition or rewards should be considered. Providing and seeking recognition is a proven strategy in involving and motivating individuals. It ensures a common value and benefit for owners, management, engineers and others. All involved parties must take active roles to secure the work cycle, use the information and ultimately save fuel costs.

Precise measurements, data collection and interpretation are the foundation for building a knowledge base with Marorka’s energy management systems. The level of detail and scope of data must be in line with the objectives of the energy system. With accurate information, maintained by the systems, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) can be established and the ship’s energy system can be simulated and optimized for the best results.

The use and application of Marorka’s solutions increases the crew’s knowledge of the vessel’s energy performance and boosts their awareness of how their control of the vessel affects economic and environmental factors. This is a key element in involving and empowering the crew to participate in the company’s efforts to reduce energy consumption.
