Is shipping’s zero carbon transition back on track?

Shipping may have set its 2050 ambitions higher than most expected, but the industry is struggling with its decarbonisation schedule. There remains insufficient current and future demand, both in terms of vessels and cargo, to match the supply required. Despite the headline announcements of dual fuel orders for potentially green ships, the orderbook is not where it needs to be and the supply of fuels, finance and policy to support the required acceleration remains, at best, uncertain. 

Considering the implications of the targets set by the International Maritime Organization in July and the likelihood of progress at COP28 in December, this timely webinar offers an expert view on the next steps in shipping’s decarbonisation timeline.  

• How does shipping accelerate the technological, political and financial measures required to ensure a smooth and just transition?
• What are the biggest risks for maritime businesses?
• What are the financial and operational consequences of delays to shipping’s 2030, 2040 and 2050 targets?
• What are the compliance risks that shipping should be considering today as it prepares for regulatory requirements and carbon trading?
