Ports as Catalysts: Enabling the Clean Energy Shift
The decarbonisation of the maritime sector presents a unique opportunity for our ports to transform into clean energy hubs, reducing port emissions and accelerating maritime decarbonisation. In doing so, ports can also drive advancements in clean energy generation, storage and distribution, helping to drive decarbonisation across the broader economy.
To fully capitalise on this opportunity, substantial infrastructure upgrades and the development of new systems and technologies will be required to meet future demands. What role can ports truly play in the clean energy transition and how can regulation and public sector financing can be leveraged to facilitate this transformation and accelerate decarbonisation across the wider economy?
