‘Ship ZERO°’ laid out a course to true zero emissions using the waypoints of existing technologies and innovations, combining perspectives and experiences from a wide range of industry stakeholders to plot a course through the stormy seas of regulation, finance, new technological developments and fuel uncertainty. The deliverable was a collaborative and interactive navigational chart (‘Charging to True Zero°’), which was shared with COP26 delegates, shipping and energy industry stakeholders as well as delivered to the IMO, in both written report and film formats.
