Höegh Autoliners, operator of the upcoming zero carbon Aurora class PCTCs, has joined the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Centre for Zero Carbon Shipping as a Mission Ambassador.
The Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Centre for Zero Carbon Shipping (the Centre) is an independent, not-for-profit research and development Centre established in 2020 with funding from the A.P. Møller Foundation. The Centre works dedicated to accelerating the decarbonisation of the global maritime industry. This complex challenge is said to require unprecedented collaboration across sectors, industries, and geographies. Working with partners, governments, authorities, public sector bodies, scientists, and organisations across the global maritime industry, the Centre aims to inform, de-risk decision-making, and spark real climate action. As a result, it delivers independent analyses of how the transition is progressing and offer clear, data-driven recommendations for accelerating maritime decarbonisation. Furthermore, the Centre is maturing solutions to the most pressing problems across the maritime value chain, from fuels to onboard solutions, regulations, and financing.
The partnership is considered to accelerate Höegh Autoliners’ transition towards a more sustainable future through collaboration with like-minded organisations, and leverage the Centre’s unique ability to develop and implement breakthrough decarbonisation projects.
Höegh Autoliners Chief Strategy and Analytics Officer, Lise Duetoft said: “Together with the Centre, we seek to accelerate both our and the maritime industry’s path to reaching zero. We look forward to both contributing and leveraging the shared knowledge and experience of the Centre’s partners.”
