General information

The European Conference Green Marine Transport is a two-day event dedicated to maritime sector. The event will bring together key stakeholders from the maritime industry, including shipping companies, ports, policy regulators, major industry suppliers and technology providers, to address critical issues in green shipping.

In 2024, green marine transport is becoming increasingly vital in Europe as the region pushes for sustainable shipping practices. The European maritime industry is actively adopting alternative fuels like LNG, hydrogen, and biofuels to reduce emissions and combat air pollution. Innovations in vessel design and energy efficiency are helping operators cut fuel consumption, while the rise of electric and hybrid vessels is transforming short-sea shipping.

Regulatory frameworks, such as the European Green Deal and the Fit for 55 package, are driving the shift towards greener operations by setting ambitious emissions reduction targets. As companies prioritize sustainability, the European market is witnessing a growing demand for eco-friendly logistics solutions, aligning economic growth with environmental responsibility. The move towards green marine transport not only benefits the planet but also enhances competitiveness in a market increasingly driven by eco-conscious consumers.
