Clean Marine Shipping provides a waste‑to‑energy solution that captures onboard ship waste at ports and converts it into hydrogen‑fuel‑cell electricity to power berthed vessels. By avoiding low‑carbon fuels like methanol or ammonia, the system offers a more energy‑efficient and economically sustainable method for decarbonising maritime operations while creating a circular economy for ship waste. The platform also integrates with port partners and municipalities to manage waste streams and generate revenue from clean energy production.

Problem
Maritime vessels generate significant onboard waste that must be off‑loaded at ports, while current low‑carbon fuel options such as methanol and ammonia are energy‑inefficient and face supply constraints. The lack of an integrated waste‑to‑energy solution limits both waste management and emissions reduction for berthed ships.
Solution
Clean Marine Shipping captures waste generated by ships at port and converts it on‑site into hydrogen‑fuel‑cell electricity that powers vessels while they are docked. The waste‑to‑energy system is designed for continuous offshore utilization, providing a more energy‑efficient and economically sustainable alternative to low‑carbon liquid fuels. By turning waste into clean electricity, the platform simultaneously addresses waste handling, reduces greenhouse‑gas emissions, and supports the maritime industry's decarbonisation goals. Partnerships with engineering firms, technology IP holders, and municipal stakeholders enable the deployment of the system at major ports.
Target Audience
Primary customers are port authorities and shipping companies that operate vessels requiring shore power, as well as maritime logistics providers seeking to reduce waste handling costs and emissions.
