The document discusses energy efficiency measures in the shipping industry and barriers to their adoption. It identifies key stakeholders in ship operation and their influence on implementing energy efficiency. A literature review found the most common barriers include lack of information, financial constraints, technical risks, and lack of crew awareness/training. A pilot survey was conducted to validate questionnaires on barriers. The main survey collected data from 91 stakeholders in Bangladesh and Malaysia on their influence level on 18 energy efficiency measures. The findings show measures with very high influence levels include improved voyage planning, speed optimization, hull cleaning, and propeller cleaning.
Globally we need to halve the carbon emissions by 2050. Through the release of Greenhouse Gases (GHG), the industry also contributes significantly to climate change.Several reulations has been put in place to help recude CO2 emissions but the shipping industry is still faced by some challenges. Big Data is helping to cut fuel bills and CO2 emissions. Objective is to build a ship rating tool for ranking and rating ships on their emissions.

Compilation of package of practices for energy conservation fisheriesAshish sahu
Fishing in India is a major industry employing 145 million people. India ranks second in aquaculture and third in fisheries production. Fisheries contributes to 1.07% of the Total GDP of India. According to the National Fisheries Development Board the Fisheries Industry generates an export earnings of Rs 334.41 billion.[1] According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, fish production has increased more than tenfold since 1947 and doubled between 1990 and 2010.[2]Each year, India celebrates July 10 as the National Fish Farmers day.[3]
India has 7,500 kilometres (4,700 mi) of marine coastline, 3,827 fishing villages and 1,914 traditional fish landing centers. India's fresh water resources consist of 195,210 kilometres (121,300 mi) of rivers and canals, 2.9 million hectares of minor and major reservoirs, 2.4 million hectares of ponds and lakes, and about 0.8 million hectares of flood plain wetlands and water bodies.[4] As of 2010, the marine and freshwater resources offered a combined sustainable catch fishing potential of over 4 million metric tonnes of fish. In addition, India's water and natural resources offer a tenfold growth potential in aquaculture (farm fishing) from 2010 harvest levels of 3.9 million metric tonnes of fish, if India were to adopt fishing knowledge, regulatory reforms and sustainability policies.[

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Industry
Mohammud Hanif Dewan
Maritime Energy Efficiency Consultant
2. Introduction and Background
Around 50,000 ships run worldwide for transporting cargo from
port to port. (BIMCO & ICS, 2015).
Everyday each of these ships consuming of huge amount of
fossil fuels by marine diesel engines produces Carbon Dioxide
(CO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Monoxide (NO),
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) and so on
which cause air pollution, global warming, climate change and
sea acidification.
Increasing of earth's temperature has been causing melting of
polar ice caps, flooding of low lying territories and increase the
level of ocean water. (Ramanathan and Feng, 2009).

5. Problem Statement
To find out the barriers for adoption of energy efficiency measures
in shipping industry of developed countries, a large amount of
study exists, BUT not a single one for shipping industry of Asian
developing countries.
In developing countries of Asia, the barriers for adoption of energy
efficiency measures may not be the same with the developed
countries in Europe or America. Because the impact of these
barriers may vary from country to country, due to varied levels of
cultural, social, economical and technological environments.
5
Although the cost reducing effects of energy efficiency design and
operational measures are well established, shipping companies
appear reluctant to adopt them! This reluctance to adopt
economically beneficial measures is often referred to as barriers to
energy efficiency.
6. The research questions
This study has been undertaken on the basis of following three
research questions:
1. How is the stakeholder’s influence on implementation of
energy efficiency operational measures in shipping of
developing countries?
2. What are the actual barriers for adoption of energy efficiency
operational measures in shipping of developing countries?
3. What can be the recommendations to overcome these
barriers?
6
7. Objectives of Research
1. To analyze or quantify stakeholders influence on
implementation of energy efficiency measures in
relation to barriers.
2. To identify the barriers for adoption of energy efficiency
operational measures in shipping industry.
3. To recommend necessary guidelines to overcome the
barriers.

8. The scope of Research
To find out the barriers for implementation of energy efficiency
operational measures in shipping industries of developing countries,
this study has focused on two developing countries in South
East Asia: Malaysia and Bangladesh.
Malaysia has been selected because, here the shipping companies
owned mostly new ships and they usually manage their own vessels.
On the other hand,
Bangladesh has been selected because, the shipping companies
of Bangladesh usually purchase the second hand old ships and
they manage their own vessels.

Table 5.2 Costly Energy Efficiency Operational Measures and their most Influential
Stakeholders and Identified Barriers
61. Conclusion
It has been observed that four main barriers which impede the adoption of all
cost-free operational measures are as follows:
lack of information of the measure,
lack of awareness and knowledge of ship crews (Deck and Engine)
lack of competence of ship crews (Deck and Engine)
operation difficulties.
These four common barriers can be eliminated by training of the ship crews
(Deck and Engine Crews) and office personnel who are directly involved with
ship’s operation.
On the other hand, it has been found that the following two main barriers
hinder the implementation of the operational measures which involve costs:
financial (budgeting & maintenance) issue and
ship owner’s interest
Green policy of the country for easy sourcing of financial supports for the ship
owners and managers can be helpful to eliminate these two barriers.
61
62. Recommendation guidelines to overcome the barriers:
Technical seminars/ training workshops on climate change on the
banner of IMO can be arranged by the flag state or maritime
administration for all stakeholders of shipping industry for grow
awareness and knowledge on maritime energy efficiency.
IMO Train the Trainer (TTT) Course on Energy Efficient Ship
Operation (IMO, 2016b), can be arranged by the Maritime
Administration to build up the capacity of the maritime trainers.
So that the trainer can train the ship crews and other stakeholders on the STCW short course: The Energy
Efficient Operation of Ship
Training for improving the knowledge and Awareness of ship’s crews and
technical managers on this SEEMP measures.
IMO has designed “Model Course 4.05: The Energy Efficient Operation of Ships”. The shipping company
can make mandatory of above mentioned course for their operation and management level deck and
engine crews.
62
63. Recommendation guidelines to overcome the barriers:
Prior joining briefing and training of Ship’s Crews to update about
SEEMP measures
Management level crews (Master, Chief Engineer, Chief Officer and Second Engineer) need to be trained and briefed by
the company prior joining on board ship to explain the SEEMP measures implemented on that particular ship, the present
output of SEEMP measures and EEOI trends, company’s policy, future plans and target to achieve the goal for SEEMP.
Circulate updated technical information of SEEMP measures from the
Experts/ Vendors and on board training to ship crews and technical managers
time to time
Detailed information about the SEEMP measures can be collected from experts, details have to be described in SEEMP
manual and time to time, the updated information has to be circulated in whole fleet to update the ship crews.
Mutual agreement between Charter Party and ship owner & ship manager for
the he operational measures which have the barrier “Conflict with charter
party requirement’’ and high or very high influence of ship charters
(SEEMP Measures such as Improved Voyage Planning & Weather Routing, Just-in-Time /Virtual Arrival, Speed
Optimization/Slow Steaming, Steam Use Optimization/Improved Cargo Heating Plan) can be implemented by a mutual
agreement between Charter Party and ship owner & ship managers. A special instruction should be given to the master
on the basis of the above-mentioned mutual agreement which will be reflected to implement related SEEMP measures.
63
64. Recommendation guidelines to overcome the barriers:
More focus on study, research and development (R&D) works on
maritime energy efficiency (design and operation) in maritime
education and training institutes
It is important that energy efficient technologies for sustainability will be given a higher focus in Maritime Education and
Training. The same should apply for future ship operators to update their skills for energy efficient ship operation, planning
and implementation of SEEMP measures in their fleet.
National policy formation and implementation by the government for
the shipping sector and necessary facilities can be ensured to boost
up energy efficient operation of national fleet
According to the demand of international regulatory body IMO, national policy formation and
implementation can be done by the government for the shipping sector and necessary facilities can be
ensured to boost up energy efficient operation of national fleet.
Green policy or energy efficient industry policy of the country for easy
sourcing of financial support for ship owners
Green policy or energy efficiency industry policy of the country for easy sourcing of financial support from
governments, bank or other can be helpful to eliminate these barriers. Besides, easy loan or financial
supports and long-term payment schemes of shipyard & dry dock or technology vendors or manufacturers
can attract the ship owners and managers to install the energy efficiency technology devices or retrofits to
install in their vessels. The energy efficiency policy of the government can ensure good services of
shipyards, dry docks and technology vendors in their territory.
64
65. Research Significance & Contributions
1. Stakeholders influences on implementation of energy efficiency
Operational measures in shipping industry have been known and
quantified.
2. Barriers for adoption of energy efficiency Operational measures
have been identified in the shipping industry of developing
countries,
By following the recommended guidelines, the shipping companies
of developing countries can improve the energy efficiency through
their fleet and able to reduce the fuel cost as well as CO2 emission.
