As the maritime sector moves towards net zero, wind propulsion is once again at the forefront of decarbonisation. Through RINA membership, professionals are not just keeping pace with this shift, but helping to shape it.
Our Wind Propulsion conference brings together designers, engineers, and innovators who are rethinking how ships move - from wind-assisted systems to fully wind-powered vessels - showcasing practical solutions that are helping shape a cleaner, more sustainable future for shipping.
By taking part, members gain early exposure to emerging developments, expand their professional network, and contribute to the collective knowledge driving maritime innovation.
