Experts advocate for regional energy hubs to decarbonise the maritime sector

Regional energy hubs will enable the inclusive adoption of clean marine fuels.

Singapore, Norway and the International Maritime Organization (IMO), through the NextGEN Connect-GreenVoyage2050 project, have put forward the establishment of energy hubs to decarbonise the maritime industry.

The collaboration emphasises the role of regional energy hubs in enabling the inclusive adoption of clean marine fuels, particularly for Least Developing Countries (LDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS).

Regional hubs will also build up investment cases for implementing energy infrastructure at scale, according to experts.

“If we truly want to achieve a net-zero future where no one is left behind, we cannot focus only on existing first-mover initiatives. We must also study locations where theenergy infrastructure is still in its infancy”, said Charles Haskell, director at  Lloyd’s Register Maritime Decarbonisation Hub.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
