The IMO Net-Zero Framework: Securing a Future for Green Fuels in Global Shipping
The upcoming IMO negotiations represent an important opportunity to advance the first global regulatory framework to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping. While there is continued support for reaching an agreement, significant differences remain over how the IMO Net-Zero Framework should be taken forward.
At COP31, the Green Hydrogen Organisation (GH2) will bring together IMO leadership, government representatives, shipowners and green fuel producers to discuss where common ground can be found, how to preserve the effectiveness of the Framework and what is needed to advance negotiations.
The discussion will explore how the Framework can provide investment certainty for green fuels, support meaningful emissions reductions and create new opportunities for developing countries.
Moderated by:
• Jonas Moberg, Chair, GH2
Speakers include:
• Arsenio Dominguez, Secretary-General, IMO
• Andrew Forrest, Founder and Chair, Fortescue
• Arun Sharma, Advisor to the Chairman and Group Head for Sustainability and Climate Change, Adani Group
