Wave 3 Funding Call: Decarbonising marine transport infrastructure projects through beneficial reuse of dredging spoil and sediment as alternatives to disposal at sea

This policy briefing explores the feasibility of improving the International Maritime Organization’s Carbon Intensity Indicator through developing a separate at port metric. It suggests that determining an appropriate at port metric would need to reflect the w

The UK’s Maritime Decarbonisation Strategy commits to zero shipping emissions by 2050. Achieving this ambition will require coordinated action between industry and government, including investment in green ammonia production, port bunkering infrastructure, su

A new white paper from Veson Nautical and Bayes Business School explores how IMO indicators are shaping vessel values in the bulk market. Using several years of data, the study highlights how efficiency performance, regulatory pressure, and market conditions int

The second edition of the UK National Clean Maritime Research Hub's newsletter was sent out on 30 March 2026. Using the same structure as the prior edition, this newsletter highlighted:   Upcoming events: South-West Clean Maritime Demonstrator Co

The European Union (EU) has implemented a tougher than IMO emission intensity indicator requirement for shipping. Under the FuelEU Maritime regulations a penalty applies where vessels are non-compliant to set greenhouse gas emission limits. In this Policy Briefi

The Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) is one of the short-term measures introduced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from shipping. This policy brief reviews the measure and provides improvement recommendations, f

"Abstract Hydrogen is stored at high pressure making discharge a safety concern, including flame stability issue. Previous studies were focused on circular nozzles. However, actual incidents are more likely to involve slit-shaped openings. The experimen

"Abstract Yard equipment upgrades are vital for port decarbonization, yet the coexistence of legacy and new yard cranes creates challenges in coordinating operations and allocating limited electrical power. This paper studies the integrated cont

Maritime policy bulletin 007 covers CO2 emission reduction technologies for shipping. In recent years maritime shipping has emitted approx. one gigatonne of carbon dioxide (CO2) per annum. Based on current trends this is projected to increase 150-250% by 2050
