Our Air Link devce is easy to install, and can send data from a ship every second. This 2-minute Air Link demo on YouTube shows it working on a NMEA 2000 network with other marine electronics, and receiving Bluetooth wireless wind data, while using wifi and Bluetooth with the Air Link app and internet via satellite, wifi or cellular.
Save Money on Carbon Credits
Ships can offset emissions using carbon credits. But our crowdsourced data for weather routing reduces those costs: The shipping sector has so far escaped the EU carbon market, which requires factories and power plants to buy permits when they emit carbon dioxide, providing a financial incentive to emit less. That is set to change from 2024, when shipping companies will have to buy EU carbon permits to cover 40% of their emissions, rising to 70% in 2025 and 100% in 2026 (ref). The rule will also make ships pay for 50% of their emissions on international voyages to or from the EU (ref).
