The project aims of developing a fully costed, engineering-ready plan to convert the ferry service to zero-emission operation powered by shore-supplied green electricity.

Over the past few months, extensive work has been carried out, including real-time monitoring of power and energy consumption across each generator and propulsion motor of the vessels, alongside a detailed feasibility and constraints assessment.

As a result, five viable energy transmission solutions have been identified:

- Hydrogen fuel system
- Fixed cable on reel
- Portable battery modules
- Automated fast charging
- Charge at anchor

Each option has the potential to replace the onboard diesel-generated power currently used to drive the electric motors that turn the chain wheels, while maintaining the necessary level of emergency resilience.

The project is funded by UK Government through the UK SHORE programme in the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom. Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation, is the main delivery partner for UK SHORE interventions.

- The ship–port interface is a key focus for early progress

- Near-term action prioritises operational & technical efficiency, such as shore power, digital tools, energy-optimised operations and retrofits

- Large-scale transitions to alternative fuels are generally treated as a longer-term pathway

At Marine Zero, this aligns closely with our view that effective decarbonisation starts with understanding how vessels actually operate - and how that translates into energy demand.

This is where MAP delivers value. By fusing AIS vessel movement data with energy modelling and operational context, MAP helps port authorities, planners, operators, and regulators to:

✅ Analyse AIS-derived vessel traffic and dwell times
✅ Estimate real-time and forecasted energy demands at berth
February 5, 2026 at 12:29 PM
✅ Model grid impact scenarios and infrastructure requirements
✅ Monitor emissions-related performance
✅ Integrate with onboard systems for real-time insights

If you’re planning port electrification or fleet transition, MAP provides the evidence base you need to move from ambition to implementation.

Our MD, @timmunn.bsky.social, presented: “Where Do We Begin? Data-Driven Pathways to Maritime Decarbonisation”.

Tim’s session demonstrated how Marine Zero’s Maritime Analytics Platform (MAP) is helping maritime operators transform complex operational data into actionable, investment-ready plans.

It was a pleasure to share the stage with Simon Eardley and Paul Tallon from Mersey Maritime, and with Alex Naughton MTCP MRTPI MTPS MILT from the @lpoolcityregion.bsky.social, who each outlined key innovation and investment priorities for the maritime sector in the North West.

Many operators, planners, and policymakers want to accelerate the transition - but face tough questions:

• What will it cost?
• How much infrastructure is really needed?
• Will today’s solution still work in ten+ years?

That uncertainty often leads to delayed decisions and missed opportunities.

At an upcoming workshop hosted by @ljmuofficial.bsky.social, our Managing Director @timmunn.bsky.social will present how Marine Zero’s Marine Analytics Platform (MAP) brings clarity to complex choices - by transforming operational data into actionable, evidence-based decarbonisation strategies.
January 23, 2026 at 10:36 AM
Drawing on insights from the Electric Thames project, Tim’s session will explore how MAP supports:

• Smarter infrastructure and grid planning
• Scalable electrification of vessels and fleets
• Better alignment across commercial, public, and policy stakeholders

If you’re involved in maritime decarbonisation, strategy, or investment, this one-day workshop offers practical insights into how we can de-risk clean marine transition - and move from ambition to implementation.

Date: 28 January 2026
Time: 09:00–15:00

Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey this year. We hope the festive break brings you joy, rest, and precious time with your loved ones. We're looking forward to 2026 and to continuing our work together, with some very exciting developments to share in the New Year.

With 2026 ahead – and the progression of so many projects Andy led and championed, from Cornwall to the Caribbean via the Thames – we're moving forward with the integrity, purpose, and determination he embodied, continuing the work he cared so deeply about.
December 22, 2025 at 2:07 PM
As the year draws to a close, we're holding space to reflect – both to remember Andy and grieve his loss, but also to give thanks for everything he brought into our lives.
