Panasia, HMM, Samsung Heavy Industries,
and Korean Register are joining hands to realize
“Carbon Neutral Future” in shipping industry
Four main companies in shipping industry, HMM, Samsung Heavy Industries, Panasia, and Korean Register,
have joined forces to secure carbon-reducing technologies in the shipping industry.On the 27th of May, these four companies signed a business agreement for integrated demonstration research on ship carbon dioxide capture
and liquefaction storage technology (OCCS-Onboard Carbon Capture System).Under this agreement, the four companies plan to form a joint working group to conduct marine empirical research by directly mounting OCCS
developed with pure domestic technology on the 2,100 TEU container ship actually operated by HMM within this year.
Panasia recently hosted a seminar for shipowners in Korea. The seminar provided information on the latest technologies, global regulations,
and industry trends in air, water, and energy solutions based on ESG. The seminar was attended by leading shipowners in Korea.
One shipowner's public affairs supervisor who attended the seminar said, “Panasia has a high understanding of environmental technologies
and has the technology and information to provide early information on the various solutions that shipowners need.
Carbon Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) can encourage shipbuilders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by investing in more fuel-efficient and less emission technologies. For these reasons, Korean shipbuilders should be interested in low-carbon technologies and seek related countermeasures as soon as possible to avoid the negative impact of the carbon trade system, thereby maintaining the competitiveness and taking the lead in the Korean shipyard market.
