Anemoi Launches Rotor Sail Production Facility in Daming Jiangjiang Manufacturing Base

Anemoi Marine Technologies (Anemoi), a leader in wind propulsion solutions, has officially opened its state-of-the-art rotor sail production facility in China. This milestone is a significant step forward in Anemoi’s commitment to accelerating the transition to zero-emission shipping technologies.

 

Located in the Daming Jingjiang Manufacturing Base along the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province, the new facility is positioned for logistical efficiency, with direct access to major shipping routes and port infrastructure. This strategic location will streamline the production and export of rotor sail products, optimizing transportation and minimizing environmental impact.

The production base features a dedicated area for barge loading and unloading, ensuring smooth integration between raw material imports, heavy steel fabrication, machinery and precision assembly, testing, quality insurance, and equipment delivery. Rotor sails manufactured here can be easily shipped to nearby large shipyards for installation, allowing for faster processing and reduced operational footprint.

 

CEO Clare Urmston Highlights the Efficiency of the New Facility

Clare Urmston, CEO of Anemoi, emphasized the importance of the new facility: This is a major step forward in scaling clean maritime technology.

 

One notable partnership is with CRRC Qishuyan Research Institute, a top-tier subsidiary of CRRC—the world’s largest rail equipment manufacturer. Since 2020, the two organizations have collaborated on areas like materials science, manufacturing, and technical services, bringing together expertise in advanced manufacturing processes. This partnership has led to the joint development of a specialized rotor sail production and testing platform, allowing for full system testing and dynamic balancing before the sails leave the factory.

Ren Lei, Marketing Director of Daming Energy Equipment under Industria pesada Daming, emphasized the significance of the collaboration: Daming is proud to partner with Anemoi, whose value and approach closely align with our own emphasizing quality, efficiency, safety, and a timely delivery. Our fully integrated one-stop production facility is ideally equipped to meet Anemoi’s needs with the flexibility to scale along with them as their operations grow. We’re confident this collaboration will thrive as the maritime industry advances.”

 

This partnership is an example of how Daming continues to contribute to the global transition toward clean energy. By offering its “one-stop” production and service model, Daming has played a pivotal role in helping Anemoi scale up production, meet increasing market demand, and maintain the high standards required for wind-assisted propulsion technologies.

 

Together, Anemoi and Daming are setting new benchmarks for the wind propulsion industry—ensuring that the solutions provided not only meet the technical specifications but also support the maritime industry’s broader goals of decarbonization and environmental sustainability.

 

Collaboration with Industry Leaders: A Vision for Clean Energy

The new manufacturing base also aligns with the high-quality, clean energy-driven development strategy of CRRC Qishuyan Research Institute, particularly their focus on “high-end transportation equipment + clean energy equipment.” This collaboration highlights the shared commitment of both parties to advancing energy efficiency and reducing emissions in global shipping.

 

Fang Jun, Deputy General Manager of Changzhou CRRC International Tiema Technology Industry Co., Ltd., noted, “This milestone project reflects the power of international collaboration. By combining the UK’s leadership in wind propulsion technology with China’s manufacturing capabilities, we’re providing impactful solutions for the global shipping market.”

 

Meeting Growing Demand: The Rotor Sail Production Base

With a production capacity of 250 rotor sails per year, Anemoi’s new facility is set to meet the increasing global demand for wind propulsion. This expansion ensures that Anemoi can offer quick delivery times while keeping pace with the rapidly growing demand for zero-emission shipping technologies. The new facility is the first of its kind in China, integrating the entire industrial chain for rotor sail manufacturing, from design and production to testing and verification.

 

Nick Contopoulos, Chief Commercial Officer of Anemoi, expressed confidence in the strategic location of the new base: “Strategically located on the bank of the Yangtze River, this site offers direct port access following Ex Work Delivery of our products, streamlining import and export logistics. With vessel transport available on our doorstep, rotor sails can be delivered efficiently and installed directly at major shipyards located nearby…This is the first of its type forthe  wind propulsion industry.”
