SUMMARY:Asia Pacific Maritime (APM) 2026
DESCRIPTION:Asia Pacific Maritime (APM) is Asia’s premier exhibition and conference for innovation across shipbuilding and marine\, workboat\, offshore\, port technology\, and electric and hybrid marine. \nHeld biennially in Singapore\, APM brings together industry leaders\, technology developers\, shipowners\, ports\, and solution providers to focus on the future of vessel operations and energy systems. The 19th edition of APM will take place from 25–27 March 2026 at Marina Bay Sands\, Singapore\, across Halls A\, B\, C\, D\, E and F. Over three days\, the event is expected to welcome more than 20\,000 industry professionals\, 750 global exhibitors\, and 150+ speakers. \nElectric & Hybrid Power at APM 2026\nNew for 2026\, APM is introducing Electric & Hybrid Power\, a dedicated segment focused on technologies already being deployed to reduce emissions and improve vessel efficiency. The feature includes a dedicated consultation lounge and conference content centred on the maritime energy transition. \nZESTAs at APM 2026\nZESTAs is a Supporting Partner of APM 2026 and will co-host the Zero-Emission Shipping Consulting Lounge within the Electric & Hybrid Power feature area. \nThe Lounge will provide a dedicated meeting point for practical discussion on what it takes to move zero emissions shipping from ambition to deployment. It reflects ZESTAs’ role in bringing together the actors needed to make progress across the maritime value chain\, including technology providers\, vessel designers\, shipowners\, ports\, energy systems\, regulators\, and finance. \nZESTAs Secretary-General Madadh MacLaine will also be moderating two conference discussions during APM 2026\, focused on green hydrogen and wind propulsion. These themes are closely connected to the issues explored in her recent articles\, which examine maritime energy resilience\, industrial readiness\, and the strategic choices now shaping the sector. \nTogether\, the Lounge\, the conference programme\, and Madadh’s recent writing show why zero emissions shipping is no longer only a future ambition\, but a question of deployment\, resilience\, and energy sovereignty. \nRead Madadh’s recent articles:\nFrom Choke Points to Checkpoints\nThe Kharg Spike \n\nLocation\nMarina Bay Sands\, Singapore\nAPM 2026 – Electric & Hybrid Power feature area\nHalls B \n\nOpening hours\nWednesday 25 March: 10:00 – 18:00\nThursday 26 March: 10:00 – 18:00\nFriday 27 March: 10:00 – 17:00 \n\nRegistration\nAPM 2026 is free to attend for trade professionals.

SUMMARY:ShipZERO31 Web-workshop-1: Swappable Energy Storage Systems Web-workshop
DESCRIPTION:9 September 2026  |  ONLINE  |  10:00–12:00 BST\nWorkshop 1 \nCan swappable energy systems allow zero-emission vessels to operate before permanent port infrastructure is in place?\nAcross much of the Mediterranean\, the renewable-energy and hydrogen infrastructure needed for zero-emission shipping does not yet exist at the quayside. \nBut that does not necessarily mean vessels need to wait. \nThe first ShipZERO31 online workshop will examine how containerised battery and hydrogen energy systems could provide a practical bridge to zero-emission operation\, allowing energy to be produced or stored away from the port\, transported using existing logistics networks and transferred directly onto vessels. \nFor some applications\, the port infrastructure required to get started could be little more than the ability to handle a standard container. \nRather than asking what might be possible in the future\, this workshop will look at what technologies already exist\, what is beginning to be deployed\, and what is still preventing wider adoption. \n\nWhat will the workshop explore?\n\nSwappable battery\, gaseous-hydrogen and liquid-hydrogen systems\nWhich vessel types and operating profiles are best suited to them\nFilling\, charging\, transport\, port handling\, connection and onboard integration\nHow existing infrastructure can be used rather than waiting for dedicated bunkering or charging facilities\nCertification\, safety and regulatory requirements\nInteroperability\, connectors and the need for common standards\nHow systems from different technology providers could work within a common framework\nThe practical and commercial barriers preventing wider deployment\n\n\nFrom presentations to problem-solving\nThis is a two-hour working session. \nThe first hour will bring together expert perspectives from across the swappable-energy ecosystem. \nThe second will move into an expert roundtable focused on one central question: \nWhat are the common challenges\, what is already working\, and which questions must we answer to make swappable zero-emission energy systems deployable at scale?\nThe objective is not to solve every challenge in two hours. It is to establish a shared understanding of the technology\, identify the barriers that can be addressed collectively\, and provide a strong foundation for the next stage of ShipZERO31. \nMeet the experts \nSpecialists from across the swappable-energy ecosystem\nShipZERO31 Workshop 1 brings together specialists working across marine batteries\, hydrogen storage\, liquid hydrogen\, ports\, vessel integration and energy-system deployment. \n\n\n\n\n\nChris Kruger \nFounder & President\, AYK Energy \nMarine battery technology and zero-emission vessel applications \n\n\n\n\n\nDr Jehan Kanga \nFounder & CEO\, Rux Energy \nAdvanced hydrogen storage and containerised hydrogen systems \n\n\n\n\n\nWouter Vuijk \nBusiness Manager\, Port of Rotterdam \nPort infrastructure\, inland shipping and swappable energy systems \n\n\n\n\n\nTherese Zahl Remøy \nBusiness Development Manager\, Hexagon Purus \nMaritime hydrogen storage and compressed hydrogen systems \n\n\n\n\n\nThomas Korn \nCEO & Founder\, water stuff & sun \nHydrogen technologies and renewable hydrogen systems \n\n\n\n\n\nSyb ten Cate Hoedemaker \nManaging Director\, Maritime Battery Forum \nMarine battery technologies\, electrification and industry deployment \n\n\n\n\n\nRobert Haugen \nManaging Director\, Hexagon Purus Maritime \nHydrogen storage and maritime applications \n\n\n\n\n\nEdward Carney \nGlobal Head of Sales\, AYK Energy \nMarine batteries and swappable containerised battery systems \n\n\n\n\n\nMartin Kalecky \nProduct Manager for Marine Systems\, Chart Industries \nLiquid hydrogen storage\, handling and cryogenic systems \n\n\n\n\n\nMike Robinson \nCEO\, 426 Maritime \nMaritime technology and vessel integration \n\n\n\n\n\nAntoon Van Coillie \nCEO\, ZULU Associates \nZero-emission autonomous vessels and inland and short-sea shipping \n\n\n\n\nTogether\, the experts will examine what is already deployable\, where the common technical and operational barriers remain\, and what needs to happen next to make swappable zero-emission energy systems practical at scale. \n\nBuilding the Mediterranean Zero Emission Ecosystem\nShipZERO31 starts from a simple proposition: \nThe technology already exists to deliver absolute zero-emission shipping. The challenge now is bringing the pieces together. \nThe online workshop series will examine those pieces individually before bringing the findings together through ShipZERO31 and the Mediterranean Zero Emission Ecosystem.
