The Danish Government’s target to be carbon neutral by 2050 and the new climate law to cut emissions 70% by 2030, has put pressure on the blue Denmark to start transitioning to greener ferry operations and to embark on a journey towards zero emission ferry.
Hear some of the latest news from Danish ship designers about the transition towards a more green ferry operation, including green energy efficiency initiatives already implemented to ongoing research and innovation projects. The presentations will share thoughts on how to reach this zero emission goal.
