SESSION THREE: THE GREEN ECO-SYSTEM: PORTS AS NEW ENERGY HUBS | ||
Ports are playing an increasingly active leadership role in reducing GHG emissions and improving the air quality for local communities. They are introducing electrification in the port environment, including the provision of onshore power for ships at berth. They will be the import and export gateways for energy sources such as hydrogen and ammonia and be instrumental in providing the supply infrastructure for new marine fuels. This session will focus on port initiatives already underway in Iberia and the Mediterranean. | ||

Panellists will also consider whether the supply infrastructure and bunker safety regulations are being developed in tandem with these fuels. | ||

SESSION SIX: THE END GAME: A QUESTION OF MONEY AND SKILL | ||
Shipping’s journey to zero in the timescale required will be hard and challenging. But two of the ‘elephants in the room’ in the decarbonisation debate are funding and skills. In the final session of the conference, panellists will consider how banks are supporting the energy transition and will look at the financing options available to maritime stakeholders. Lastly, a shortage of skilled crew is a major problem facing shipping today. So, as 2050 approaches, how will shipping and the wider maritime sector recruit and train employees to use the new fuels and technologies? | ||
