Decarbonisation and electrification of maritime

Shipping keeps the world moving. From goods on store shelves to global trade, over 80% of everything we use travels by sea. But there’s a cost — and it’s not just financial. The maritime sector burns millions of tonnes of heavy fuel oil, releasing huge amounts of CO₂, sulfur oxides, and other pollutants into the air and oceans. If shipping were a country, it would be one of the top 10 carbon emitters in the world.

That has to change — and fast.

Ports electrified. Ships energised. Oceans purified.

That’s the vision we’re working toward.

We’re building practical solutions to support the decarbonisation of the maritime industry — starting with the development of clean energy infrastructure at and around ports.

The goal is simple: reduce emissions without waiting for a perfect solution. Here’s how:

Shore Power (Cold Ironing)

Instead of running diesel engines while docked, ships can plug into electricity from clean sources. This cuts emissions right at the port — where people live, breathe, and work.

We’re deploying containerised battery systems that deliver flexible, mobile shore power where permanent grid upgrades aren’t available yet.

Battery-Powered Support

We’re also working on modular battery containers that can be used for onboard operations or even propulsion for short-distance vessels. These systems are plug-and-play, portable, and ready to support tugs, ferries, or service boats.

Energy-as-a-Service

Most port operators or vessel owners can’t afford to overhaul their systems overnight. That’s why we offer energy-as-a-service models — no upfront investment, just clean energy delivered where and when it’s needed, with predictable costs.

This isn’t a far-off idea. The systems we’re building are real, mobile, and working now — starting with early deployments in Europe and expanding to where they’re needed most.
