Chart showing SU price ranges across shipping policy scenarios and the impact of stable market design on clean-fuel investment

Shipping energy transition needs stable policy signals to unlock scalable clean-fuel investment

Shipping energy transition could stall without policy designs that give investors clearer price signals, stable rewards and better confidence in future fuel availability. The report finds that frameworks combining pricing, capped compliance markets and targeted rewards are better placed to accelerate scalable adoption of low- and zero-emission fuels. This report examines how different IMO policy architectures shape the shipping energy […]

LNG as marine fuel cuts shipping emissions but methane slip keeps decarbonisation pressure on the sector

LNG as marine fuel can reduce shipping emissions compared with conventional marine fuels, but the climate benefit remains constrained by methane slip and supply-chain performance. The analysis also shows that biogenic and renewable-based synthetic LNG could offer deeper emissions cuts where scale, cost and feedstock availability allow. LNG as marine fuel is emerging as a more nuanced transition option for […]

Nuclear shipping faces regulatory and safety hurdles

Nuclear shipping is drawing interest as a zero-carbon route for long-distance maritime transport, supported by advances in small modular reactor technology. But fragmented regulation, safety oversight, liability rules and emergency planning remain major obstacles to commercial adoption. Nuclear shipping is emerging as a serious decarbonisation option for the maritime sector, particularly as small modular reactor technology improves and pressure grows […]
