Description
Summary:The information about the energy efficiency of various technical devices, at present, is a necessary knowledge to design new and upgraded equipment. International requirements for energy efficiency of road transport and international maritime requirements of MARPOL for ships are considered in the article. The requirements of this international document are related to EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index). The EEDI index combines several important points of view of different sciences to the ship: the theory of ship design, ship theory, economics and ecology. The directive of the European Commission for energy and transport requires that cars must be categorized according to the amount of carbon dioxide, which is emitted in grams per kilometer. Comparative analysis of energy efficiency was conducted for road and sea transport. The aforementioned parameters are directed to reduce the content in engine exhaust gases the carbon dioxide, as the substance, which can creates the greenhouse effect.
