Abstract
The environmental effect from shipping is an area of focus for the maritime industry and for external stakeholders. Even though there are many tools, methods and initiatives, there is still a lack of a holistic approach. This paper presents existing environmental assessment tools and introduces systems engineering as a holistic approach to life cycle designs.
► Has a life cycle focus. ► Gives overview of environmental management tools to move towards sustainability. ► Presents Systems Engineering and its links to general ship design methods.
