Welcome to Powering Progress: Innovation & Energy in Maritime Conference by Lloyd’s Register

Date: Thursday 5th December 2024.
Time: from 12.00 to 17.00 (A light lunch will be served, with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres to follow at the conclusion of the conference).

The theme of energy transition is well established on the maritime world agenda. Different stakeholders – the energy producers, the energy consumers, the associated supply chains, and the investors, insurers, regulators, class societies and governments – all have critical, but different and highly inter-related roles to play within the transition. 

This event introduces our new Industry and Innovation Programme and is designed for senior leaders to engage in important discussions alongside their technical teams. Take a deep dive into the role technology and digitalisation have in emissions reduction and energy management. We’ll interactively explore how different stakeholders all have critical, but different and highly inter-related roles to play within the energy transition. 

Insights and experiences are shared through Panel discussions, Tech Talks, and Case Studies.   

Why attend: 

  • Understand the key developments and trends shaping the energy transition. 
  • Discover innovative approaches and actionable steps to optimise and accelerate the energy transition 
  • Share your perspective on which critical technologies and investment strategies will deliver the energy solutions of the future. 

As a trusted advisor, our energy transition conference provides access to thought leadership, market insight and influential ideas by bringing together shipping leaders, senior business executives and industry specialists.
