DSNAME – Alternative fuels – experiences and opinions

Developments within alternative fuels are rapid as well as experiences with actual operations are increasing.

At this event IDA Maritime and DSNAME will like to invite you to a follow up on the autumns event on alternative fuels. We arrange this event in a different way than our traditional Monday meetings, so be prepared! We will have a total of six short presentations, three before the break followed by half an hour of debate – including the presenters and you the audience – followed by three presentations and half an hour of debate after the break.

The first three presentations will focus on actual operational experiences attained with alternative fuels, most recent test results and considerations to the impact towards ship design. After a sandwich break, the three latter presentations will focus on the broader application of alternative fuels in the perspective of fuel bunkering and availability, propulsion technologies in general as well as specific considerations of fuel cells.
