New Energy Markets in West Coast Shipping Report

Published December 2023 by Oceans North, ARUP, C40 Cities

Work to transition the maritime sector away from fossil fuels has been delayed due to the hard-to-decarbonize nature of activities such as long-range shipping, but there are reasons to focus on and fast-track maritime decarbonization. A multi-stakeholder workshop in November 2023 on New Energy Markets in West Coast Shipping worked to link clean energy projects with the marine value chain and figure out how energy export projects can be leveraged to decarbonize ports, shipping and marine transportation. This report summarizes the discussion and outcomes of the event.
