China Classification Society (CCS) has awarded dozens of Approvals in Principle (AIP) at this year’s China International Maritime Exhibition (Marintec China).
The exhibition is one of the most authoritative B2B platforms for the international maritime industry and it has seen numerous business deals, shipbuilding orders, and new ship designs revealed and approved so far.
CCS has awarded AIPs primarily to domestic companies for their achievements in the application of green, intelligent, and digital technologies in the field of shipping, as well as accomplishments in ship safety and industry data interconnectivity. The classification society has also awarded international companies approval certificates, including to Finnish technology group Wärtsilä.
Here are some of the vessel designs, propulsion and decarbonization solutions approved by CCS:
