Singapore’s Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) and the Global Maritime Forum (GMF) sign knowledge partnership to advance decarbonisation of the shipping industry.
Through this knowledge partnership, GCMD and the Global Maritime Forum will collaborate around low or net-zero emission projects and programmes, such as the sharing of knowledge and data analytics, and in support of the development of green corridors.
The two non-profit organisations will also work closely to support the development of industry-led project consortia for low or net-zero emission shipping demonstrations and pilots.
This partnership between the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation and the Global Maritime Forum will allow us to leverage the strengths of both organisations in moving the industry towards meeting the IMO goals
GCMD CEO Prof Lynn Loo commented.
In addition, Johannah Christensen, CEO of the Global Maritime Forum, stated that urgent action from all stakeholders across the maritime value chain is needed to decarbonize international shipping in line with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
