In October 2020 our conference programme moved online, allowing our global communities to continue to connect, network and gather knowledge. Our virtual conferences offer ample opportunity to participate in live sessions, to arrange meetings and network, whilst also allowing attendees to keep on top of their daily routine, and still have some personal time.
After the successful launch event in Bergen in 2019, our conference returned in a new interactive virtual format, bringing together experts in the field to discuss the latest developments in hybrid and electric technologies driving this dynamic sector, with a regional focus on Europe.
Driven by the compelling benefits of reduced fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and maintenance, application of hybrid and electric and hydrogen fuel cell technologies is accelerating across the sector. These clean technologies will play a pivotal role in the decades ahead as the maritime sector transitions towards decarbonisation.
The session content is available below.
