- Abstract
The globalized world that we are living in; is heading, and targeting toward developing and improving technologies needed for emissions reduction from ships, which will contribute as an element to reach a bigger and global goal known as Green House Gases (GHG) reduction. Through the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations, the shipping industry committed to reducing the emissions of CO2, SOx, NOx and Particular Matter (P.M), which is mainly, caused by the use of the fossil fuel onboard ships. Energy management considered as one of the important tools that assist the organizations to reach their objectives. Which is survival for short-term and success for long-term (Doty & Turner, 2013). This research explores/Investigate the real-time energy usage monitoring onboard technology to improve vessels’ energy efficiency performance, through the new applications and its circumstances, developed by two of the biggest shipbuilding countries; China and Japan. The first step, starting with a major aspect exposes a brief theoretical demonstration and explanation of the specific topic, presenting formal literature, and also the important issues found eventually by researchers. Also, the most recent developments and technologies considered in this study to discuss their existing benefits and applications. Furthermore, the possible future approaches, The second step, presents information concerning strategies/activities. Including services, operation, procedure, and projects applied by the cited countries. Moreover, presenting a critical review of the related portion, that was addressed by both countries around the topic. The third step carrying out a comparative analysis of the application for both countries taking into account the findings in the second step; to identifying the "Best Practices" and lessons learned.
