A total of 23 governments responsible for over 90% of global public investment in clean energy innovation have committed to greater action to make clean energy affordable to all by 2030 and accelerate net zero pathways, as part of Mission Innovation 2.0 initiative. 

The world has a viable pathway to building a global energy sector with net-zero emissions in 2050, but it is narrow and requires an unprecedented transformation of how energy is produced, transported, and used globally, the International Energy Agency said in a new report.

An international consortium of 46 partners led by the Belgian Port of Antwerp will receive a €25 million grant from the European Horizon 2020 programme to showcase concrete solutions for reducing GHG emissions while safeguarding competitiveness in European ports. 

Stena Line is now accelerating the transition towards fossil-free shipping and presents its plan to reduce total CO2 emissions by as much as 30% until 2030.

After 18 months of work, the largest industrial onshore wind farm in Flanders, with 11 new wind turbines, is now operational at the Port of Zeebrugge and will be able to create 'shore power' or so-called ‘cold ironing’. 

In order to boost environmental technology and provide industry energy-efficient solutions, four companies are joining forces in a new cleantech group, named as HAV Group ASA. To better explain, HAV Design AS, HAV Hydrogen AS, Norwegian Electric Systems AS and Norwegian Greentech AS are bringing together their expertise and experience in a new group under the name HAV Group ASA, with a view to strengthening and highlighting their environmental technology. As informed, HAV Group's vision is to contribute to the green shift in the maritime and marine industry by producing innovative and profitable solutions. "We are now establishing HAV Group to further enhance innovation so we can steer the maritime and marine industry through the green shift, contribute to reducing environmental footprint, reduce emissions and accelerate the development towards zero emissions". ... Gunnar Larsen, CEO of HAV Group said. In addition, partners stated that the companies in the group will generate more value together than individually, and that the stock exchange listing is related to their wish to enable investments in a listed growth company and to position the new group for growth.
