The methodology is based on recognised industry standards and provides a common framework for Silverstream and shipowners to measure system performance. The assessment follows RINA’s Approval in Principle for Silverstream’s EEDI calculation and testing methodology, granted in December 2025 . “Our customers want reliable performance data to inform their decisions, which is why we have worked with RINA, a leading global class society, providing them with access to our data and methodology,” Noah Silberschmidt , CEO and Founder of Silverstream, said.
