CNSS

“Clean North Sea Shipping” (CNSS) is a project under the EU North Sea Region Programme that finalized in February 2014. The CNSS project involved 18 partners from six countries. It was praised as a very “hands-on” project with a strong focus on the market. It delivered multiple tools to reduce exhaust gas emissions from ships, with the objective to improve the environmental and health situation caused by air pollution and greenhouse gases from shipping along the North Sea coast and within ports in the area. The project studied available technologies, focusing on LNG and onshore power supply. Swedish Marine Technology Forum was in charge of developing a LNG showcase that informed and stimulated different stakeholders to take action and implement the necessary infrastructure.
