This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Terje Lade gives a inspiring presentation on the vision behind Vindskip™. Shipping stakeholders globally are recognising the importance of creating more sustainable solutions. Due to its very low fuel consumption, Vindskip™ can utilise liquified natural gas (termed LNG) as fuel and will still be capable of up to 70 days of steaming between bunkering. Thus it can meet all of todays and tomorrows regulations.

He has also spent 10 years as a designer within Offshore Engineering and in his spare time he has been working on the design of speed sailing boats.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
