报告简介：

    Over 90% of everybody consumes today comes from maritime transportation, with a rate of 50-250% by 2050. Maritime shipping contributes 3% GHG emissions but the SOx emission from a 14k-TEU container ship is equivalent to 19 million cars. To reach the net zero target, over 35,000 existing ships must be retrofitted, and another 55,000 new ones must be built by 2050. This target can only be achieved by a joint effort of many sectors, of several different green fuel pathways, from well to wake. The urgencies, challenges, and the strategic measures to achieve this ardent goal, will be discussed. A £21.3 (￥2亿) project, the National UK Clean Maritime Research Hub to address the clean maritime issues for the net-zero target, was jointly funded by the UK EPSRC and DoT in Sept 2023. One of the 6 Centres of the HUB, “National Research Centre for Vessel Design and Efficiency” led by Professor Pengfei Liu, the speaker will be also briefly discussed.
