Italy’s classification society Rina and shipbuilder Fincantieri have signed a memorandum of understanding to develop synergies in the field of decarbonisation, with a focus on alternative fuels, carbon capture and renewable energies in the shipping sector.
The agreement sees the involvement of the two companies in initiatives related to technology scouting, the analysis, study and simulation of new fuels and energy vectors – in particular hydrogen and ammonia – and carbon capture.
RINA and Fincantieri will also co-participate in EU-financed R&D projects and engage in the development of “green finance”.
