OPS for workboats and leisure - MCS, batteries, CCS etc: building the infrastructure for decarbonisation
Onshore power supply (OPS) solutions for workboats and leisure vessels ranging from megawatt charging systems (MCS) and batteries to CCS can accelerate maritime decarbonisation. Drawing on market and technology insights, it will examine practical pathways for electrifying vessels such as tugs and small ferries using a mix of emerging and proven solutions. The discussion will focus on the infrastructure needed to scale these technologies effectively and support the transition to zero-emission operations.
