Innovative technology helps global cruise and cargo vessels cut costs and carbon emissions

Collaboration Overview
The maritime industry urgently needs greener operational solutions. In response, Swedish energy management specialist eMarine and global technology leader ABB have formed a strategic partnership. ABB will supply 1,500 marine-certified NINVA™ non-invasive temperature sensors. Subsequently, eMarine will integrate these sensors into its vessel energy management platforms. This integration will significantly improve real-time energy monitoring for global shipping operators.

eMarine’s Expanding Capabilities
eMarine provides digital energy management solutions designed especially for maritime applications. Many leading cruise and cargo operators already use its systems to monitor and reduce energy consumption and CO₂ emissions. Through this partnership with ABB, eMarine now incorporates cutting-edge sensing technology. As a result, the company can offer clients even greater performance and adaptability.

Technical Advantages of NINVA Sensors
The NINVA™ sensors feature an innovative non-invasive design. They attach externally to pipes, which eliminates drilling and prevents leakage risks. These sensors withstand vibrations up to 4g and perform reliably in harsh maritime conditions. Moreover, they deliver accuracy equal to traditional invasive sensors, making them ideal for optimizing onboard systems.

Application and Operational Benefits
Accurate temperature monitoring is essential for key vessel systems like heat recovery, cooling water, and ventilation. The NINVA sensors provide real-time data, enabling operators to fine-tune parameters and improve thermal efficiency. Consequently, ships can reduce fuel use and cut CO₂ emissions. Industry experts anticipate that this technology will help meet stricter environmental targets.

Executive Perspectives
Ola Persson, CEO of eMarine, stated: “Teaming up with ABB allows us to offer more sophisticated energy tools. Integrating NINVA sensors helps our customers lower their carbon footprint and operational costs.”

Dr. Guruprasad Sosale, Product Manager at ABB Measurement & Analytics, added: “Applying NINVA technology in the maritime sector shows ABB’s commitment to sustainability. We believe these sensors will set new efficiency standards for shipping.”

Corporate Background
ABB is a global leader in electrification and automation with over 140 years of experience. The company offers solutions that help industries boost productivity, efficiency, and sustainability. Currently, ABB employs about 110,000 people and is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and Nasdaq Stockholm.

Industry Outlook
The maritime industry faces growing pressure to adopt cleaner technologies. Together, ABB’s engineering and eMarine’s maritime expertise can drive sustainable operations. Therefore, wider use of NINVA sensors should play a key role in global decarbonization efforts.
