If you would like to come and join our Maritime Decarbonisation Summit 2024, please register your interest.
Maritime Decarbonisation Summit 2024
Coinciding with Sustainability Week at Shoreham Port, UK, Ricardo is once again opening our doors to stakeholders from across the maritime sector with the aim of facilitating and accelerating the decarbonisation of the sector.
Join us to learn about the latest thinking and developments in maritime decarbonisation, see the latest technical innovations showcased, network with industry peers and help shape the future of decarbonisation for the sector. Previous experience has shown us that bringing experts and stakeholders together drives the necessary conversations to overcome barriers to decarbonisation.
Speakers from ports, vessel owners and operators as well as organisations working directly with the maritime sector will provide insight and experience on:
• The decarbonisation of ports’ own operations as well as a ports’ role in facilitating the decarbonisation of vessels
• Electrification opportunities as well as the roles of sustainable and low-GHG fuels
• Experiences of how to ensure the environmental transition goes hand in hand with economic development.
There will also be site visits to several test facilities at Shoreham Technical Centre to view recent technological developments first-hand.
Watch the video below for insight into last year's event:
Who should attend?
We look forward to the participation of port operators, electricity network operators, vessel owner/operators, Government funding agencies, harbour authorities, fuel suppliers and technology developers.
It is free to attend but space is limited. Please register your interest and we will inform you if you have secured a place.
