NETSCo to Speak at SNAME Conference

Jan Flores SNAME panelist for Alternative Fuels presentation

Jan Flores, VP of NETSCo will be a panelist on the Alternative Fuels presentation on Thursday, October 28, 2021 from 1 – 2:30 pm at the SNAME Maritime 2021 Conference.

The SNAME description of the presentation is: “Amendments to MARPOL Annex VI and the results of MEPC 76/77 have created unprecedented changes to the air emissions standards for maritime operations. The industry as a whole is expected to take significant steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions between 2023 and the major milestone dates of 2030 as well as 2050.  Existing energy efficiency technology and power limitation strategies are likely to be leading compliance strategies for owners , operators, and designers in the near term,  however the move to low carbon & zero carbon fuels will be the necessary long term solution. Attend this panel discussion to learn about alternative fuel options and how various pathways can support sustainability goals of the future.”

Mr. Flores will delve further into the topic of Ammonia as a Fuel, with a 10 minute presentation showcasing a recent case study NETSCo completed for a major shipowner. The use of alternative fuels requires careful consideration and creative ideas in several important areas. To learn more go to https://netsco.us/services/environmental-regulatory-compliance/
