Successful Workshop on Zero-Emission Waterborne Transport – 17th June 2024!

On June 17th 2024, WEGEMT hosted the workshop “Empowering Change: Industry-Higher Education Collaboration for Novel Technologies in Zero-Emission Waterborne Transport.” 

A well attended workshop, where we delved into electrification and digital twins for green shipping, as explored by the FLEXSHIP and DT4GS – The Digital Twin for Green Shipping projects under Horizon Europe’s ZEWT cpp framework.​

In the highly attended workshop, we engaged participants with four GROUPS of questions centered around electrification and digital twins for sustainableshipping. The GROUPS were mainly focused on:

  • Vessel electrification and Digital Twins for zero-emission shipping ​

  • Training for pertinent applications in the wider waterborne
    sector (transferability)​

  • Long-term skills strategy and higher education training course for seagoing crew and
    shore-based maritime professionals
