The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation’s Trial Shows Shipboard Carbon Capture Is a Dead End, But Refuses to Say So
The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation’s Project CAPTURED life cycle assessment is one of the more important documents yet produced on shipboard carbon capture. Not because it proves the technology works, but because it finally grounds the discussion in measured data across an end to end value chain. For years, … [continued]

Why Shipping Is Quietly Aligning On Methanol & Hybrid Electric Systems
Shipping decarbonization is often discussed as a contest of fuels, but the more revealing story is how capital, engineering effort, and orders are actually moving. Over the past three years, the maritime sector has been forced to reconcile ambitious fuel narratives with operational reality. Engine manufacturers and ship buyers are … [continued]

From Riverboats To Global Ports: CATL Is Winning The Shipping Electrification Race
CATL’s batteries and energy management systems are already operating in roughly 900 ships and vessels, a figure that on its own should reframe how maritime decarbonization is discussed. Shipping is conservative for structural reasons tied to safety, long asset lifetimes, and unforgiving certification regimes, so deployment at this scale signals … [continued]

From Models to Money: Reflections on a Year of Practical Decarbonization
Before diving into a reflection on the year, it feels important to start with gratitude. None of this work happens in isolation. Over the past year, an extraordinary number of people took the time to share their expertise, challenge my assumptions, correct my mistakes, and patiently help me understand subjects … [continued]

EU 2035 Reversal: Playing for Time Won’t Make European Carmakers Great Again
Extending the sales of combustion engines would divert investment from EVs while China races further ahead. Reversing the EU’s 2035 phase-out of combustion engine sales sends a confusing signal to the European car industry and consumers, T&E has said. Carmakers could continue selling cars with engines, the European Commission proposed … [continued]
