Virtual Workshop on Hydrogen in Decarbonization Strategies in Asia and the Pacific Read more about Virtual Workshop on Hydrogen in Decarbonization Strategies in Asia and the Pacific Green hydrogen produced by renewable energy can help tackle sustainability challenges in sectors such as transportation, building development, and power generation, and enable larger-scale penetration of variable renewable energy when combined with emerging low-carbon technologies.
Green Ports, Shipping, and Maritime Decarbonization Read more about Green Ports, Shipping, and Maritime Decarbonization 70% of global trade by volume (80% by value) is carried by maritime shipping, and 60% of these goods are loaded or unloaded in developing country ports. Maritime transport accounts for 3% of global GHG emissions - equivalent to the 6th largest GHG emitting country globally – and rising rapidly. Simultaneously, seaports are highly exposed to climate change impacts including sea-level rise and increased intensity of storms.
