Island-led Innovation powers the future of sustainable marine transport
The Clean energy for EU islands (CE4EUI) workshop brought together pioneering projects from across Europe's island regions to showcase their contributions to decarbonising maritime transport. From Denmark to the Aegean, the Canary Islands to Italy, islands are proving to be ideal testing grounds for clean ferry systems, smart ports, and alternative fuels.Smart Ports: Roadmap to ElectrificationProfessor J.
