GREENFLEET
Greening the Fleet – Sustainability Transitions in the Maritime Shipping Sector
Project's title: GREENFLEET: Greening the Fleet – Sustainability Transitions in the Maritime Shipping Sector
Project's duration: 2017-2020
Contact person: Teis Hansen
Overview
GREENFLEET aims to analyse the opportunities and challenges associated with a transition from fossil-based fuels to low- or zero-carbon technologies. With a 'technological innovation systems' perspective at its core, GREENFLEET will analyse the strengths and weaknesses of three focal low- or zero-carbon energy technologies, as well as hybrids of these and conventional energy solutions. The three energy technologies in question are:
- battery-electric
- biofuels
- hydrogen
GREENFLEET aims to illuminate the strengths and weaknesses of novel 'green technologies' that can contribute to emission reductions in the Norwegian maritime shipping sector.
