Why the key is adaptability.
Yesterday evening, we gained insights from DNV’s Jeroen van der Veer, who shed a light on decarbonisation, legislative changes, and their impact on the maritime industry. Here are our top takeaways on both the solutions and their challenges👇
⚫ LOW CARBON FUELS – Developing sustainable production methods and meeting volume demands present significant hurdles
🌲 RENEWABLE ENERGY – Expensive storage solutions and occasional impracticality pose obstacles to widespread adoption
💡 NEW TECHNOLOGY – Regulations struggle to keep pace with the rapid advancements in technology
During the event, Jeroen Veer shared a quote from Charles Darwin that perfectly captures the importance of adaptability for survival:
“It is not the most intellectual of the species that survives; it is not the strongest that survives; but the species that survives is the one that is able best to adapt and adjust to the changing environment in which it finds itself.”
Huge thanks to the Propeller Club – Geneva, for organising this thought-provoking event entitled ‘The Global Need for Energy Transition and its Impact on the Maritime Industry’. Together, let’s embrace adaptability and steer the maritime industry towards a sustainable future.
