“Raising the industry’s competence level”


Decarbonization is a question of technology options, and a question of priorities and regulatory frameworks. We believe that knowledge of trends, organizations and processes that are involved in decarbonizing shipping will enable our people to be an even more informed discussion partner for our clients.

To meet this ambition, Klaveness Academy launched its very own decarbonization program for onshore personnel centered around regulation and frameworks. The learning path provides an overview of the main policy and regulatory trends impacting shipping decarbonization and offers advanced knowledge of policy trends as well as concrete regulatory instruments. VP of ZeroLab, Martin Prokosch, is co-architect of the program and joins us in the Studio to walk us through what the program is and why it is important people understand what it takes to decarbonize shipping to improve climate-driven decision making in their work.

Discussion points include:

  • Who and what is ZeroLab

  • How the Decarbonization Academy supports our strategic objectives

  • Why it is important employees across all levels of the organization are equipped with this knowledge

  • Turning knowledge into action

  • What benefits do our customers see?

  • What is next for the program

  • Prokosch’s final words of wisdom for the industry
