Zero Ready Framework Ensuring shipping can deliver our zero emissions future

November 10, 2022

Zero Ready Framework Ensuring shipping
Shipping faces a critical challenge. The energy transition is well underway and ocean going zero carbon ships must be in service by 2030. The industry is currently focussed on delivering zero Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by fuelling with renewably sourced ammonia, hydrogen or methanol. But solutions for widespread deployment are not ready yet and ships built today have expected lifetimes of 20-30 years. So, the industry now thinks in terms of ‘readiness’, the ability to ensure that a vessel can use zero carbon fuel once this becomes feasible, either by building new vessels that have this capability from the day they are built, or by ensuring existing vessels can be easily converted.
