Over the course of the next decade and beyond, green shipping corridors are expected to act as a catalyst for the global energy transition by providing frameworks for regional and international stakeholders to collaborate on maritime decarbonization goals while aligning with broader regional, national, and international decarbonization initiatives. As with all elements of the global energy transition, the number of stakeholders and the available resources, can prove challenging. Therefore, route selection and key performance indicators must be data-driven decisions, with the goal of large-scale decarbonization and techno-economically feasible implementation.
The ABS Green Shipping Corridors Simulation service is designed to be the cornerstone solution for any green shipping corridor, providing the data needed to make design, development, and implementation decisions. With so many stakeholders and variables, a solution is needed that takes into account all variables while also providing both a macro and micro level analysis. From determining the optimal route for a corridor to deciding vessel construction needs for operating within that route, the ABS Green Shipping Corridors Simulation can address all stakeholder needs.
Analysis support begins at the pre-feasibility stage and continues throughout the lifecycle of the green shipping corridor. With asset and operations from multiple stakeholders and a wide range of operational, economical, policy, and regulatory issues to consider, simulation and optimization tools are ideal for providing stochastic analysis that takes into account uncertainties that may affect the green shipping corridor’s design.
