As we move towards a more sustainable future, we're thrilled to work with ports that share our view on green energy! One such port, Moss Port in Norway, has taken a huge step forward by becoming 100% emission-free. 🚢⚡ With electric lifts and electric trucks handling container pickups, they're cutting 10kg of CO2 emissions per container – making a real difference in reducing the shipping industry's carbon footprint. At Viasea, we're proud to work alongside partners who are driving the change toward a greener, cleaner future. Let's keep pushing for sustainability! 🌍💚 Check out the Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK) news about Moss Port here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eT4iWsmr #Sustainability #CleanEnergy

🚨 𝘿𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙥 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙯𝙚𝙧𝙤-𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙛𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙮 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣! 🚤⚡ In recent years, our partners have pioneered the world’s first fully electric fast ferries – and they're ready to scale up their solutions. 💡 But now, the Norwegian Government is backpedalling on its promise to implement zero-emission requirements in public tenders for high-speed passenger ferries 🙅♂️ In a story published by NRK (link in comments), industry leaders like Norled AS, Brødrene Aa, Corvus Energy, Iverson eFuels AS/Hy2gen, Bergen Havn, Havila Kystruten and others are voicing their concern: With policy reversals like this, Norway risks losing its leadership in green technology ⚠️ Luckily, many voices in Parliament agree with us: We need strong policies to keep the momentum going.

🌍 Pioneering a Greener Future in Maritime Logistics 🌊 Exciting news for the shipping industry! A Green Maritime Corridor connecting Portugal to Northern Europe is underway, led by Madoqua and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL). 🚢 This ambitious project will revolutionize maritime transport by integrating: ✅ Zero-emission vessels ✅ Green fuels like ammonia and e-methanol ✅ Carbon management initiatives, including CO2 sequestration in Norway 💡 With €500 million in investment for export infrastructure and collaborative efforts involving global stakeholders, this corridor is set to play a pivotal role in achieving the EU’s climate goals and transforming the global green fuels industry. Why it matters: This initiative goes beyond shipping to create a fully integrated value chain, from production to utilization, showcasing the power of partnerships in driving the energy transition.

⛰️ The Pacific Northwest to Alaska Green Corridor project is preparing to study the feasibility of four green methanol-powered cruise ships operating complete Alaskan itineraries by 2032, with at least one ship in service in the market by 2030. ➡️ This initiative not only aims to reduce air emissions in the region, but also supports the cruise industry's larger sustainability goals, as we continue to pursue zero net emissions by 2050! 🛳 #WeARECruise

Belfast Harbour and Portsmouth International Port are transforming maritime operations towards sustainability. With Belfast Harbour achieving an impressive 18% reduction in GHG emissions last year and setting even higher goals, and Portsmouth's innovative "Sea Change" project that empowers hybrid ferries with shore power, these initiatives show how ports play a crucial role in maritime decarbonisation.

Neste, OK Slurink (Catom) and Scylla AG have partnered to supply Neste MY Renewable Diesel for Scylla’s river cruises in Europe. The collaboration marks a step towards more sustainable practices in inland shipping, especially the river cruise sector. OK Slurink will supply Scylla's 40 ships with Neste MY Renewable Diesel, reducing GHG emissions by up to 90% compared to fossil diesel. Neste, OK Slurink, and Scylla's joint effort sends a clear message to the inland shipping segment, encouraging a swift and comprehensive shift towards more sustainable and environmentally responsible river cruise operations in the Netherlands and beyond.

As a young girl, my love for journalism and reading was stoked, in part, by thumbing through my grandmother's magazine subscriptions. And when it came to quality reporting, TIME magazine was always the gold standard--little could I imagine back then that I'd one day have my own byline appear in this storied publication. Very proud to cover the important work Norway's Havila Voyages is doing in transitioning the cruise industry to greener, cleaner technologies in TIME magazine's current issue: "World's Greatest Places of 2024." https://lnkd.in/ezPBBg4c #sustainabletourism #sustainabletravel (Havila Kystruten Sara Leiter Nina Kjønigsen)

We will be at #PortugalShippingWeek 2024 this week, hosted by ship.energy and Petrospot Limited.   Our co-founder and partner, Sofia Fürstenberg Stott, features in two sessions - on May 7th and May 8th – where she shall be exploring how port clusters can engage collaboratively to meet escalating demands and challenges of the energy transition.   Sofia will also delve into the regulatory trajectory of decarbonisation in shipping, and share a future-focused view of policies and regulations underpinning a sustainable energy shift.   At Fürstenberg Maritime Advisory, we recognise the significant need for specialised maritime advisory services in a market that often goes overlooked. The maritime industry is currently grappling with unprecedented existential challenges as we strive to balance trade and commerce with true sustainability, and the preservation of our planet. So, not trivial!   We’d welcome the opportunity to see you in Portugal. Click here to register: https://lnkd.in/eUJHX36d   #PSW2024 #decarbonisation #regulations #ports #truesustainability
