The Hong Kong Branch of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers will be hosting the following event during the Hong Kong Maritime Week 2019. While this event is free of cost, prior registration is required due to limited seating capacity.
Panel discussion - Friday, November 22, 2019
Shipowners face a doubling of cargo volumes by 2050 (assuming conservative growth of 2-2.5% per annum) whilst cutting emissions at least by half (if UN and broader societal expectations are to be met). Therefore, shipowners must find alternatives to the fossil fuels that have powered their ships for most of the 20th Century. There is no time to waste considering that ships need at least 20 years of life to pay back their investment cost and that the requisite technologies do not yet exist at an acceptable cost. How should the industry go about meeting this challenge and many more?
