Decarbonisation

Decarbonisation

Description:

At the University of Plymouth, decarbonisation is supported through transdisciplinary research, innovation, and collaboration across various sectors, particularly in energy, maritime and logistics. The University’s Centre for Decarbonisation and Offshore Renewable Energy leads initiatives to reduce carbon emissions through the development of alternative fuels, such as hydrogen and ammonia, and the integration of renewable energy sources like wind, wave and tidal power. Researchers work closely with industry partners to create sustainable solutions for shipping, supply chains, and energy production. Additionally, the University provides education and training for future leaders in sustainability, equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to accelerate decarbonisation efforts globally.
