Request For Proposals (RFP)
The Maritime Administration-s (MARAD) Maritime Environmental and Technical Assistance (META) program is issuing this request for proposals (RFP) for a comprehensive study(s) to understand current U.S. capabilities for design and construction of low/zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission commercial vessels that also significantly reduce vessel generated underwater radiated noise (URN).
Projects should be completed within 10 months from time of award.
A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
The META program (46 U.S.C. ยง 50307) is investigating the interconnections between broader energy efficiency and decarbonization initiatives in the maritime sector, with a specific focus on reducing URN from vessels and exploring potential co-benefits. Key takeaways from a recent U.S. co-led IMO workshop stated in part that the most promising opportunities for optimizing energy efficiency gains and achieving GHG and URN reductions are in the early ship design stage, using a systems approach, and considering more holistic re-conception. The workshop highlighted the necessity for intentional and integrated ship designs that prioritize energy efficiency while simultaneously reducing GHG emissions and URN.
Achieving a decarbonized shipping sector necessitates vessels to adopt lifecycle fuels with low to zero GHG emissions and technologies seamlessly integrated into novel vessel designs. These designs should prioritize efficiency and incorporate future alternative fuels and energy technologies. This will require promoting design, construction, conversion, and operation of vessels with net-zero ... - Documents :
