What is the Njord Score?
What is the Njord Score?
The Njord Score is a performance benchmark that evaluates how well a vessel is utilizing proven energy-efficient technologies and how much additional improvement potential remains. It provides a clear, comparable indicator of a vessel's current level of optimization.
How is the Njord Score determined?
How is the Njord Score determined?
The score is calculated by assessing the vessel’s existing efficiency technologies, its operational profile, and the estimated impact and payback time of additional relevant upgrades. Each vessel receives a rating from A to E, where A represents near-full optimization with a short ROI, and E indicates significant remaining savings potential.
What is the benchmark score and why is it relevant?
The Benchmark score is the average Njord score of the already, by Njord, screened vessels. The benchmark score is relevant to evaluate how the vessels potential compares with the industry.
What technologies does the Njord Score assessment include?
The Njord Score includes a wide range of proven energy-saving technologies, from advanced coatings to propulsion optimization devices. Technologies are selected based on their maturity, commercial viability, and a commitment to maintaining a sub-2.5-year ROI, ensuring the bespoke technology package is both effective and financially viable.
How can I obtain a Njord Score for my vessel or fleet?
How can I obtain a Njord Score for my vessel or fleet?
You can receive a Njord Score by engaging Njord Solution for Technology Screening, Solution Design, or an Installation Partnership. A quick indicative score can also be generated online by submitting basic vessel information, allowing comparison with similar ships.
How can a vessel improve its Njord Score?
How can a vessel improve its Njord Score?
Improvement comes from implementing the recommended energy-efficient technologies identified during assessment. These solutions are selected based on technical relevance and economic viability, helping vessels reduce fuel consumption, lower emissions, and enhance long-term performance.
Who benefits from using the Njord Score?
Who benefits from using the Njord Score?
The Njord Score is useful for shipowners seeking efficient upgrade strategies, charterers evaluating vessel performance, buyers assessing acquisition opportunities, and investors looking for transparency on efficiency and compliance readiness. It helps all stakeholders understand a vessel’s optimization level and potential.
