Singapore-Rotterdam GDSC adds key partners to boost green goals

It welcomed Hapag-Lloyd and  A*STAR's Centre for Maritime Digitalisation.

The Singapore-Rotterdam Green & Digital Shipping Corridor (GDSC) welcomed new global value-chain partners to accelerate digitalisation and decarbonisation goals.

The new partners include Hapag-Lloyd, the fifth-largest global liner shipping company operating over 260 vessels, and A*STAR's Centre for Maritime Digitalisation, managed by A*STAR's Institute of High-Performance Computing.

The GDSC has 26 global value-chain partners, comprising shipping lines, fuel suppliers, port authorities, industry coalitions, banks, top educational institutions, and knowledge partners.

The GDSC partners will pilot first-mover projects and test commercial structures to increase the adoption of zero and near-zero emission fuels like synthetic and bio-methanol, ammonia, methane, and hydrogen, with designated working groups examining these fuels.

In addition, the Maritime Port Authority (MPA) will establish a working group to assess the cost and scalability of these fuel-based initiatives.

“This collaboration will allow Singapore and Rotterdam to pilot innovative solutions on one of the world’s busiest shipping routes and accelerate the decarbonisation and digitalisation of the shipping industry,” Teo Eng Dih, MPA CEO, said.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
