Actionable insights for a climate positive future

There is consensus on the need to decarbonise.
The mechanics are unresolved.

Shipping’s transition is stalled on the work between ambition and operation – pricing the risk of inaction and action as regulations evolve,
and turning credible ideas into bankable propositions.

In 2023, maritime trade reached 62 trillion ton-miles, a 4.2% increase on 2022
That's enough capacity to send >1 Tesla Model Y to Proxima Centauri, our nearest star after the Sun
Without action, shipping's 2050 share of emissions could increase to 10% vs. today's 3%
That’s approaching the contribution of agriculture to global emissions in 2021
$ 2.6 trillion investment required for shipping to reach net-zero by 2050
That amount is greater than the GDP of Italy and less than the GDP of the UK (2023)
Shipping needs to innovate at an unprecedented pace to meet the IMO's ambition
Several new technologies and incremental innovations are required across fuels, propulsion, and operations
The zero-emission marine fuels shift can create up to
4 Million jobs by mid-century
Enough jobs to employ almost the entire population of Panama in 2023

Our work translates between domains. We bridge strategy and operations, connect organisational targets to project-level plans, and build repeatable solutions to recurring challenges.

We provide consultancy services at the
intersection of maritime, climate and finance.

01

Transition Plans & Climate Finance Frameworks

Transition plans grounded in sectoral pathways, for multiple relevant regulatory and technology scenarios. Integrating climate metrics into capital allocation and portfolio steering, setting KPIs for green financing instruments, and mapping transition-related portfolio and project risks.

Typical deliverables: Climate metrics and materiality assessments, dashboard design, KPI frameworks for sustainability-linked and green loans, target-setting project management, transition risk mapping.

02

Custom Research

Research on alternative fuels and clean technologies to identify opportunities and surface risk factors that affect outcomes for financiers, asset owners, operators and policymakers.

Typical deliverables: Techno-economic analyses, total cost of ownership models, fuel pathway and technology assessments, regulatory cost projections, commissioned reports.

03

Market Intelligence

Sector intelligence on decarbonisation pathways, emerging technologies and their commercial maturity. Supporting due diligence and strategic positioning in shipping, ports, energy and adjacent hard-to-abate sectors.

Typical deliverables: Due diligence support, market mapping, product-market fit analysis, pilot project ideation.
