The key objective of this feasibility study is to ascertain if a 100% electric foiling Pilot Vessel, the 'eFoiler-Pilot', is a technical, and economically, viable solution for pilotage.As an island nation, 95% of UK trade by volume is moved by sea. Every person in the country will consume goods on a daily basis that have been provided to the UK by ship. Almost every ship entering or leaving a port, is required under UK law to engage an Authorised Pilot, who boards the vessel at sea, and takes conduct of the safe navigation of that vessel.Maritime Pilots are key to keeping these essential ships safely transiting in and out of UK ports and waterways ensuring the safe, timely and efficient movement of essential trade. Pilotage is also critical in protecting the national infrastructure and environment from damage or pollution, by eliminating accidents from untrained operators.Maritime Pilots are expert senior mariners who typically hold authorisations to work in a single port or area. Within their coastal area, they specialise in expert knowledge of the weather, tides, water depths, local conditions and traffic in order to navigate ships safely, timely and efficiently, in and out of constrained waterways and ports. In the UK alone, there are over 650 authorised pilots.Today, over 3,200 Pilot Vessels operate globally (around 960 registered in UK and EU), emitting 820,000 tonnes CO2e each year _\[Inventory of Air Emissions, LA Port, 2019\]._ Pilot Vessels account for 2% of all the waterborne emissions of large harbour operations such as Los Angeles. As the need for pilot vessels is expected to follow the anticipated growth of 6.4% of the world merchant fleet over the next 5 years, it is imperative that a disruptive solution to decarbonise Pilot Vessel operations is brought to market quickly.This project will ascertain the feasibility of the Artemis-eFoiler electric propulsion system as a solution to decarbonise Pilot vessel operations.**Key Objectives*** To undertake data collection and analysis of typical Pilot vessel duty cycles* Develop a Digital Twin of an optimised Artemis-eFoiler electric propulsion system and vessel platform (eFoiler-Pilot);* Develop a full mission simulation of the eFoiler-Pilot undertaking Pilot transfer operations in the Artemis Technologies simulator;* Investigate the potential reduction of lifecycle emissions of the solution and any barriers to adoption; and* Create a regulatory roadmap for the eFoiler-Pilot and plan for large-scale demonstration of the solution.

这项可行性研究的主要目标是确定一艘100%的电动翼板引航船--eFoeller-Pilot是否是一种技术上和经济上可行的引航解决方案。作为一个岛国，英国95%的贸易量通过海上运输。这个国家的每个人每天都将消费通过轮船提供给英国的商品。根据英国法律，几乎每一艘进出港口的船只都必须雇用一名授权的引航员，该引航员在海上登船，并负责船只的安全航行。海事引航员是确保这些重要船只安全进出英国港口和水道的关键，确保重要贸易的安全、及时和高效流动。在保护国家基础设施和环境不受损害或污染方面，引航也是至关重要的，因为它可以避免未经培训的操作员发生事故。海上引航员是经验丰富的高级海员，他们通常持有在单一港口或地区工作的授权。在沿海地区，他们专门掌握天气、潮汐、水深、当地情况和交通的专业知识，以便安全、及时和高效地驾驶船只进出受限制的水道和港口。仅在英国，就有超过650名授权引航员。今天，超过3200艘引航船在全球运营(约960艘在英国和欧盟注册)，每年排放820,000吨二氧化碳。_引航船占洛杉矶等大型港口作业所有水上排放的2%。由于预计未来5年对领航船的需求将达到全球商业船队6.4%的预期增长，因此必须迅速向市场推出一种颠覆性的脱碳解决方案。该项目将确定Artemis-eFoader电力推进系统作为脱碳领航船运营解决方案的可行性。**主要目标*进行典型领航船工作周期的数据收集和分析*开发优化的Artemis-eFoader电力推进系统和船舶平台的数字双胞胎(eFoler-Pilot)；*开发在Artemis技术模拟器中进行试点转移操作的eFoler-Pilot的完整任务模拟；*调查解决方案生命周期排放量的潜在减少以及采用的任何障碍；以及*为eFoler-Pilot创建管理路线图，并计划对该解决方案进行大规模演示。
