The maritime industry is at a critical juncture, facing unprecedented challenges. With rising fuel costs, stringent environmental regulations, and the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, traditional fuels are no longer sustainable. The industry is grappling with the dual pressures of maintaining profitability while transitioning to cleaner energy sources. These challenges are compounded by the increasing frequency of extreme weather events, which can disrupt shipping routes and schedules. The question is: how can the industry navigate these turbulent waters?
In this Lloyd’s Register webinar, presented in collaboration with Nuclear Engineering International publication, our speakers will share key findings from the recent ‘Fuel for Thought: Nuclear’ report exploring the transformative potential of nuclear power for maritime shipping. Our speakers will expand on the science behind nuclear energy, highlighting its unparalleled energy density and zero-emission profile. Providing insights into the latest advancements in nuclear technology, including new small modular reactors (SMRs) and their applications in commercial shipping. We will also discuss the proven safety record of nuclear power in naval applications and how these principles could potentially be adapted for the shipping industry.
Our expert panel will discuss practical strategies to address the key issues the maritime industry faces today. This includes understanding the regulatory landscape and how to navigate it, implementing nuclear technology safely and efficiently, and leveraging nuclear power to achieve long-term sustainability goals. Our speakers will share knowledge gained in real-world experience of nuclear powered projects, offering valuable lessons and best practices, culminating in a live Q&A session.
