Atlantec Enterprise Solutions will present digital solutions supporting the decarbonisation of the maritime industry. The Hamburg-based IT company develops AI-supported tools to help maritime stakeholders monitor emissions and improve efficiency throughout a ship’s lifecycle.
At SMM 2026, the company will showcase approaches covering the entire lifecycle of a vessel, from the initial design phase to shipyard production and operation. For ship design, Atlantec is developing an AI-supported toolbox intended to help shipyards and engineering offices identify suitable design alternatives with reduced engineering effort.
Within the EU-funded EcoShipYard project, the company is also focusing on sustainability in shipbuilding. The project uses real-time data and digital twin technology to monitor production processes. One example is plasma cutting, where data acquisition systems collect energy consumption and emissions data for analysis. Based on this information, opportunities to reduce time, costs and energy consumption can be identified.
Atlantec is also involved in the EU-funded FLEETfor55 project, which focuses on decision-support tools for the introduction of cost-effective and sustainable technologies in shipping. The project examines the integration of commercially available energy-efficiency technologies across ten retrofit and newbuilding use cases using digital tools.
To provide an overview of available solutions, around 50 technologies have been identified and assessed. Their impact on ship operations and the interaction between selected systems are being analysed using a “design-for-operation” approach. According to Atlantec, the aim is to support shipowners and other stakeholders in selecting technologies that improve energy efficiency while helping to meet environmental regulations throughout a vessel’s lifecycle.
