The Journey Towards Decarbonization: Progress, Challenges and Opportunities

The industry is making good progress towards the energy transition, however, the next steps in reaching zero carbon shipping are now presenting new requirements and challenges. The need for construction and infrastructure projects that can support carbon capture, as well as other changes, such as providing alternative fuels to ports, or even the creation of green shipping corridors for breakbulk, are all obstacles the industry is looking to overcome. Our panel will analyze what the best and most viable options are in the next steps toward decarbonization.
