Mapping of zero-emission pilots and demonstration projects, 4th edition

Fuel and energy

This Getting to Zero Coalition study maps, for the fourth time, zero-emission pilots and demonstration projects from the global maritime ecosystem. It focuses on ship technology, fuel production, and bunkering and infrastructure solutions that can help the maritime industry decarbonise by 2050.

The term ‘pilots and demonstration projects’ refers to projects or services in their early concept stages and exclude those that are now readily available to the mass market. The fourth edition of this study is based on updated projects from previous editions as well as new projects that have been discovered or announced since the third edition was published in March 2022.

The fourth edition of the Mapping of Zero-Emission Pilots and Demonstration Projects includes 373 registered projects, an increase from 203 registered projects in the third edition, with new trends emerging. The study suggests that more than one-third of previously registered projects have progressed to a new phase or reached an important development milestone since the third edition.
