In retrofitting and onboard efficiency, the storage volume of methanol fuel is one of the core challenges. SRC's Methanol Superstorage technology enables vessels to carry approximately twice the amount of methanol fuel compared to traditional tank layouts, and this solution has received RINA type approval. LTH Baas focuses on energy-saving solutions ranging from waste heat recovery to improving HVAC performance, achieving gradual decarbonization by reducing energy waste. Eumar Design offers lightweight bathroom and interior solutions based on its patented GelCeramic Lightweight technology, reducing weight by up to 50% to support fuel efficiency and onboard comfort. Inspirators! develops AI-based engineering tools for the shipbuilding and offshore sectors; its FutuDraw automatic BOM module generates bill of materials directly from specifications, drawings, and customer orders, accelerating workflows and reducing human errors.

In port infrastructure, shore power is a key near-term measure to reduce emissions from berthed vessels. ShoreLink has developed shore power and shore-based charging solutions, including advanced cable management systems, suitable for various vessel types such as cruise ships, and these have been applied internationally. Addressing durability challenges in concrete structures, Primostar Group offers advanced waterproofing and profile solutions, focusing on long-life watertight concrete performance and controlled crack design, aiming to reduce installation time and maintenance costs.

These cases demonstrate that the key to maritime transformation lies in the commercial viability and large-scale implementation of existing solutions, with many technologies already ready for application. Silve Parviainen, U.S. Export Advisor at Enterprise Estonia, stated that for international operators, Estonian companies offer partnerships that understand innovation while addressing practical delivery challenges.
