Since its establishment in 1975, Turbo General has been working with the marine, industrial, locomotive, and automotive industries to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, utilize waste energy, comply with environmental regulations, enhance engine longevity, support the use of alternative fuels, and provide operational flexibility.
Speaking on what motivated them to become one of our incentive providers, Vasilios Michael Chrysopoulos, CEO Turbo General, said, “Our decision to partner with the Green Award Foundation to motivate frontrunner shipping companies through incentives is driven by our ambition to promote sustainable business practices.”
“Turbocharging and repairs are highly encouraged practices in the shipping industry as they boost the power and efficiency of an engine by using exhaust gases to compress more air into the engine, leading to better performance and potentially lower fuel consumption and emissions,” said Jan Fransen, Executive Director, Green Award Foundation.
“For nearly 50 years, we have been serving the marine, industrial, locomotive, and automotive industries with turbocharging and maintenance. Turbochargers are the lungs of every engine, and without correct maintenance, a ship might become unseaworthy. We also provide training services to shipping companies, and our headquarters in Athens is chosen by several maritime academies and approved by the ministries of education and ministries of shipping of Malta, Cyprus, and Egypt to provide hands-on seminars to seafarers and students,” said Chrysopoulos.
Besides real-time access to their team of quality personnel for turbocharging and repairs, Green Award-certified shipping companies will enjoy added benefits, including, but not limited to special discounts, financial savings, operational improvements, enhanced reputation, regulatory compliance, competitive advantage, valuable networking opportunities and much more.
