Can we decarbonise international shipping by 2050? The Climate Transition Podcast
-
- Technology
International shipping enables around 80%-90% of global trade and accounts for around 70% of carbon emissions from shipping globally. If the world is to achieve global net zero emissions by 2050, we need to decarbonise the maritime shipping sector with a combination of low-carbon fuels and energy efficiency.
In this episode, we talk to Ragnar Wisløff from Höegh LNG, a leading provider in the fast growth of liquefied natural gas, which is playing a key role in transforming global energy markets. The company also expanded into green hydrogen in 2021 by buying a minority stake in Gen2 Energy. We talk to him about the importance of fuels in the decarbonisation of the maritime shipping industry.
We'd love to hear from listeners. Please get in touch with any thoughts or comments at enrsector@dlapiper.com. We'd also be grateful if you take a moment to rate and review the podcast wherever you found it, so it's easier for like-minded listeners to find us too.
