💡 NOK 86 Million in EU Funding to Reduce Ship Noise! 🌊🚢    Great news! The EU is investing NOK 86 million in our new LOWNOISER to reduce underwater noise pollution. With 15 partners across Europe, we're going to develop new technologies that make shipping quieter and greener:    🔹 Innovative solutions – air lubrication, low-noise engine mounts, fiber-optic monitoring  🔹 Real-world testing – including on HX Hurtigruten Expeditions' Roald Amundsen  🔹 New industry standards – supporting IMO and EU noise reduction regulations    Underwater noise disrupts marine life, but with collaboration, technology, and smart regulations, we can build a sustainable future for our oceans and the shipping industry.    Norway's Minister of Climate and Environment, Andreas Bjelland Eriksen, welcomes the partnership:  — Norway is proud to be a leading player in developing green solutions for the shipping industry.    Thanks to Horizon Europe, CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, and all our partners for making this happen! Let's make waves for change! 🌊✨    Klima- og miljødepartementet | Norwegian Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries | Innovation Norway | Norges forskningsråd | Kongsberg Maritime | Lloyd's Register | SINTEF Ocean | Bergen Engines | VTT | Vibrol Oy | TSI -Técnicas y Servicios de Ingeniería S.L. | Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya | Ibaizabal Group | HX Hurtigruten Expeditions | Alfa Laval | INFN | Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche | Bureau Veritas Group    #LOWNOISER #CleanShipping #SustainableOceans #HorizonEU #MarineInnovation

While some take a wait-and-see approach, others—like SinOceanic Shipping AS and Grieg Star—are actively shaping the future through initiatives like Green AI for Sustainable Shipping >> The GASS Project 🙌 Led by e-Navigation pioneers NAVTOR, the GASS project leverages digital twins and machine learning to optimize voyage and vessel performance. SinOceanic and Grieg Star are key contributors, each supplying two demo vessels for real-world testing as well as valuable fleet data to enhance AI models 🚢🚢🚢🚢 What's in it for them? Deputy Technical Director of SinOceanic Shipping, Magne Aunebakk, highlights three key reasons for their commitment: 🌍 Taking responsibility for reducing environmental impact ⛽ Lowering future fuel costs, whether fossil-based or climate-neutral 📜 Ensuring compliance with ever-stricter EU & IMO regulations Intrigued?

🚀 1 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐍𝐎𝐊 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧! 🌍 Congratulations, GreenH AS and partners! They’ve made a final investment decision to build a green hydrogen facility capable of producing 8.5 tons of hydrogen every day. 💡 We value a major milestone for the growing hydrogen value chain which will play a key role in decarbonizing maritime operations along the Norwegian coast – including powering the Torghatten ferries. 🚢⚡ Clean energy is the future; this investment strengthens the transition! 👏 Morten Solberg Watle | Grieg New Energy | Enova SF #Hydrogen #GreenShipping #Sustainability #Innovation

🚨 New Podcast Launch! 🚨 In a critical time for the green transition, Maritime CleanTech and Nysnø Klimainvesteringer are launching the podcast Klimaklok – a platform for knowledge, dialogue, and inspiration to further develop cleantech and take climate action🌍💡 🎙 In the first episode: Minister of Climate and Environment Andreas Bjelland Eriksen shares his thoughts on Norway's role in the Paris Agreement, why national emission cuts are essential, and how investments in climate technology can strengthen both competitiveness and sustainability. 👉 Listen to the first episode here: #Klimaklok #GreenTransition #ClimateTech #Cleantech #Sustainability #Podcast

Brussels greeted us with rain and chilly weather, but the Ship-aH2oy team brought the sunshine! 🌦️☀️ Joined by our Project Officer George Sarros and Head of Sector, Aviation and Waterborne Research and Unnovation, Gabriel Mialocq of CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, we sat down to review our achievements so far and discuss our next steps. With the progress we've made in the first stage of the project, we’re ready to push ahead with the goal of demonstrating zero-emission shipping using liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) and fuel cell technology. Our clear mission is to turn this innovative concept into reality onboard one of Edda Wind’s cutting-edge offshore wind vessels 🚢 Big thanks to CINEA/European Commission and our partners for your support in this bold endeavour. Let’s keep the momentum going – rain or shine! 🌧️✨ VTT | Edda Wind | Østensjø Rederi | Hydrogenious LOHC Maritime | FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg | Siemens Energy | DNV Hellas | ESI Ltd.

The Ocean Charger project this week held the first project meeting of 2025 in Trondheim. Coinciding with the EERA DeepWind conference, it was two very productive and interesting days. 🌊 In the project’s third year, some very interesting outcomes are starting to appear, and these results formed an solid base for active discussions about how to enable battery-electric SOVs for maintenance of wind farms in the North Sea. The project’s third and final year will be important in the relentless work to remove the greenhouse gas emissions from offshore wind ship operations.   Stay tuned for more news in 2025! 💥 Vard Design | Seaonics AS | Vard Electro | Equinor | Rem Offshore | Solstad Offshore ASA | SINTEF Ocean | Digicat | Marine Energy Test Centre (METCentre) | Source Galileo Norge | Corvus Energy | Shoreline Wind | Plug Power | University of Bergen (UiB) | Maritime CleanTech | NORCE Norwegian Research Centre | Sustainable Energy Norwegian Catapult Centre | Siva SF| Innovation Norway | Reach Subsea | SINTEF Energy Research | The Research Council of Norway #shipbuilding #innovation #oceancharger #sustainablefuture #greentransition
