Babcock International Group's LGE division has received Approval in Principle from Lloyd's Register for its onboard carbon capture solution, EcoCptr. Announced during a maritime event in Milan, this technology integrates Aqualung's CO2 capture method with Babcock's EcoCO2 system, aiming to support the shipping industry's transition to lower emissions.

While onboard carbon capture systems are viewed as vital for decarbonization, challenges remain, including operational costs and infrastructure issues. Babcock's commitment to innovation is evident in this development, which could enhance compliance with international maritime regulations.
