What’s in this Report?

Waterborne public transport is essential in coastal and river cities worldwide.

And like all modes of public transport, there’s a shift to electrify waterborne vessels to meet the goal of decarbonisation. Many cities around the world have already implemented electrification, a key solution to cut emissions and tackle environmental challenges like pollution and fuel leaks.

Explore the advantages and practical implementation of waterborne vessel electrification – all with the goal to achieve zero-emission urban waterborne transport.
