But this is not simply a conversation about fuels, or even energy systems — the factors that will determine where the industry lands on the spectrum of scenarios laid out ahead involve a much more serious and holistic approach and a much wider dialogue outside shipping

Ramping up the production of clean fuels is one thing, but joining the dots between ports, shipping and the logistics sectors while aligning the public and private sector support required to catalyse a global clean energy transition, is not something that just happens. This week’s edition of the podcast reports from inside a global meeting of energy ministers trying to turn aspiration into action

The magnitude of action and investment needs to be stepped up and, for that to happen, regulatory clarity and climate financing must be agreed. In this extended edition of the podcast, Maersk, Shell, CMB, Lloyd’s Register and the World Bank contribute insights to a special progress report on maritime decarbonisation
