Global climate change mitigation policies have been the overriding driver of electrification in the automotive industry, with emission regulations compelling automotive OEMs to produce and sell more low- and zero-emission vehicles. However, while regulations are pushing electrification, carmakers’ ability to transition manufacturing at scale will depend on planning, efficiency and availability in the supply chain, especially for lithium-ion batteries.

Global maritime trade expanded at a slower pace in 2018, while volumes reached 11 billion tons.

The slowdown was broadbased and affected nearly all maritime cargo segments. It undermined global port cargo-handling activities, and growth in containerized global port throughput decelerated to 4.7 per cent, down from 6.7 per cent in 2017.

With over 90% of world trade transported by sea, it is not surprising that the emissions generated by the shipping industry makes it one of the world’s largest producers of greenhouse gases (GHG). Quite unique when it comes to emissions regulations, the marine industry has multiple organisations that regulate those emissions. The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) is perhaps the most well-known, however the European Union (EU) and US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) amongst others, all have different legislative requirements.

Autonomous shipping is set to revolutionize work in the maritime industry not by replacing humans on board vessels but by augmenting their cognitive capabilities to enhance the ship operators’ potential. As an example, the challenges are considered faced by the officer of the watch, who is responsible for ensuring a safe navigation of the vessel whilst keeping a watch on the bridge. Not only must she or he contend with working shifts and periods of fatigue and boredom, but also with spells on the bridge during which the outlook is impaired by darkness, fog or challenging weather.
