The Department for Transport-(DfT) estimates total annual electricity demand at UK ports will rise from 20GWh(2016) to ~250GWh(2050), with shore power contributing demanding over 200GWh. Emissions at berth represent ~16% of ships' carbon emissions, 13% of Nox, 11% of PM10\. Hydrogen is integral to DfT's recent Maritime decarbonisation strategy(2025), requ...

Both the UK and Singapore are facing current/future challenges of freshwater demand significantly exceeding supply. In the UK, there will be projected water supply deficits of ~5000MLD (2050), driven by Environment Agency abstraction reductions, population and economic growth, and climate change effects of drought/water scarcity. In Singapore, the Ministr...

To reach net zero and achieve world-leading emissions reductions, the UK Government is targeting low-carbon hydrogen production of 10GW by 2030 (~2 million tonnes/year). There are similar ambitious international strategies, such as in Taiwan with estimated need for around 4.35 million tonnes of hydrogen per year by 2050\. Mutual challenges to achieve thes...

Ports are a significant component of the UK economy, contributing £7.5 billion annually and supporting around 119,000 jobs across the country. Despite anticipated deployment of alternative fuels at ports, their total electricity demand is to increase significantly by 2050\. The UK's Department for Transport estimates that total annual electricity demand a...

In the transition to low carbon shipping, multiple low carbon fuels are currently being investigated. It is likely that in the future different fuel types will be used by ships depending on their operational requirements, such as voyage duration or cargo being carried. This poses a difficulty for port operators in the development of infrastructure which c...

The WaterFOre project addresses an urgent safe water supply need in Syria for drinking and hygiene. Conflict has damaged water supply networks and millions of people lack regular access to safe water. Vulnerable families and children, especially displaced people and those in rural areas, have had to resort to unsafe alternatives leading to rising rates of...
