Y-Hull® is available for licensing to qualified shipowners, shipyards, and maritime organisations worldwide. Join the future of sustainable shipping. Y-Hull® currently partnered with EcoNavis Solutions Ltd., Glasgow, United Kingdom for further CFD studies and commercialisation in the UK and EU.
Why License Y-Hull®?
Y-Hull® is not just a research concept — it is a commercially proven technology with two operational vessels and validated performance data.
33% fuel savings at operational cruising speed translates directly to significant operating cost reductions — payback periods achievable within 2–4 years depending on vessel type and route.
Y-Hull® directly supports IMO 2030 and 2050 decarbonisation targets. Licensing Y-Hull® future-proofs your fleet against tightening environmental regulations including CII requirements.
UK IPO trademarked protected. Licensing gives you exclusive rights to use the Y-Hull® technology for your specified vessels and routes.
