BAR Technologies has appointed Panmarine & Industrial Services Ltd. as its commercial consultant for Greece, Cyprus and connected territories, strengthening its regional presence as wind propulsion moves into wider adoption as a practical fuel-saving and vessel efficiency measure.<\/p>\n

The announcement comes ahead of Posidonia 2026, where the global maritime community will gather in Athens against a backdrop of fuel price pressure, regulatory uncertainty and growing interest in practical vessel efficiency technologies.<\/p>\n

It also follows the recent WindWings\u00ae installations on Union Maritime\u2019s Brands Hatch, Spa and Monza, and comes as BAR Technologies moves from first commercial deployments towards wider market adoption, with 13 WindWings\u00ae now fitted across five vessels, and four more WindWings\u00ae powered vessels to be launched before the end of 2026<\/p>\n

Based in Piraeus, Panmarine & Industrial Services Ltd. is well established in the Greek maritime market, representing international engineering and industrial technology companies across the marine sector. The company will work with BAR Technologies to engage with owners, operators and technical teams across Greece and Cyprus.<\/p>\n

John Cooper, CEO at BAR Technologies<\/strong>, said: \u201cWindWings\u00ae have moved from concept to proven commercial technology, and the next stage is about helping more shipowners understand where wind propulsion can support their operational and commercial goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cGreece is one of the world\u2019s most important maritime markets, with owners known for technical judgement and commercial discipline. Panmarine brings the local knowledge, technical credibility and relationships needed to support discussions with owners and operators across the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs more owners look closely at practical efficiency measures, our focus is on making sure they have the technical and commercial information they need to make informed decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vangelis Doussis from Panmarine<\/strong> said: \u201cWe are excited to be working with BAR Technologies to bring WindWings\u00ae to the Greek and Cypriot markets.<\/p>\n

\u201cGreek shipping has always been open to technologies that are technically sound, commercially practical and capable of delivering real operational value. WindWings\u00ae fits that profile, with proven performance already demonstrated in service.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to introducing the technology to owners and operators across the region and supporting BAR Technologies as wind propulsion moves even wider commercial deployment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Developed using BAR Technologies\u2019 expertise in advanced simulation, aerodynamics and high-performance engineering, WindWings\u00ae are designed to deliver measurable fuel savings through wind-assisted propulsion.<\/p>\n

WindWings\u00ae now carry class validation from Bureau Veritas and DNV, alongside Lloyd\u2019s Register approval for its P-Wind power calculation methodology, underlining its readiness for wider retrofit and newbuild deployment.<\/p>\n

For shipowners weighing fuel cost, vessel performance and changing regulatory requirements, wind remains the only propulsion source that is free at source, available on the route and requires no new fuel infrastructure. WindWings\u00ae turn that available energy into measurable vessel efficiency gains.<\/p>\n

About BAR Technologies<\/em><\/p>\n

With an impressive heritage, having spun out of Great Britain’s former America’s Cup Team, BAR Technologies provides a wide range of design and engineering consultancy services across commercial ships, workboats, leisure boats, and engineered solutions. The company boasts a team of world-leading naval architects, optimisation specialists, fluid dynamists, and system engineers, all focused on delivering next-generation maritime technology.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

About WindWings\u00ae\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

BAR Technologies’ patented three-element wing design is unique in the marketplace, delivering 2.5 times the lift of a single-element wing. Unlike other wind-assisted propulsion systems, WindWings\u00ae require no continuous power for suction fans or mechanical spinning. They automatically adjust camber and angle of attack for optimised efficiency at the most angles and wind speeds, offering a proven, scalable solution for emissions reduction.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Offering on average 1.5 tonnes of fuel saving per WindWing\u00ae per day, the 37.5m WindWings\u00ae has taken its place as the most powerful wind-assisted technology on the market.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
