How can wind and hydrogen deliver Absolute Zero Emissions across Mediterranean shipping?

Register now for HyWindships, the second online workshop in the ShipZERO31 Mediterranean Zero Emission Ecosystem series, where we will discuss how wind, hydrogen and efficiency technologies can be combined to achieve Absolute Zero Emissions.

The discussion will focus on real operating conditions: ship types, routes and Mediterranean wind patterns, and which combinations of technologies are best suited to each.

What will the workshop explore?

Mediterranean ship types, routes and wind conditions
Rigid sails, rotor sails and kite propulsion
Vessel efficiency and energy-demand reduction
Hydrogen propulsion and onboard systems
Integration of wind and hydrogen
Matching technology combinations to vessel types and routes
Naval architecture and operational considerations

From technologies to integrated vessels

This is a two-hour working session focused on one central question:

What combination of wind propulsion, efficiency technologies and hydrogen works best for different vessels and routes in the Mediterranean?

The findings will contribute to the wider ShipZERO31 Mediterranean Zero Emission Ecosystem, alongside work on renewable energy and hydrogen production, ports, infrastructure, finance and policy.

Building the Mediterranean Zero Emission Ecosystem

The aim is to identify practical technology combinations for Mediterranean vessels and routes, feeding those findings into a Med ZEE Green Shipping Networks Template and the ShipZERO31 report.

We are pleased to announce FinOcean as ShipZERO31 supporting partner.
