Ricardo is one of a growing number of leading players to have joined the organisation which is now seeking to support the waterborne transport sector achieve zero emissions by 2050.

Fiona Twisse, Senior Technical Consultant For Sustainable Transport, Ricardo Energy & Environment, on Sustainable Aviation Fuel and the ‘Green Fuels, Green Skies’ competition.

Ricardo’s technology will use sustainable forestry waste to remove greenhouse gases and provide local communities with renewable heat and electricity, and by-products for farming.

In recognition of its world-renowned expertise in decarbonisation, Ricardo has been invited to join other leading global marine organisations to help achieve the marine sector’s ambitious targets around zero emissions.

Leveraging Ricardo’s expertise in hydrogen, fuel cells and defossilised fuels to support zero emission mobility, the new energy group is dedicated to putting Sussex at the forefront of the hydrogen fuel revolution.

Ricardo is part of a seven-strong UK consortium of innovation partners from industry and academia developing a next generation, integrated propulsion module with zero tailpipe emissions to enhance aircraft performance, while reducing operating costs.

The partnership will accelerate global efforts to decarbonise energy and infrastructures through the design and delivery of high-quality hydrogen technologies, supporting carbon neutral measures.

Transitioning the shipping industry to carbon-free fuels and renewable energy will eliminate emissions approximately equivalent to those of Japan or Germany while empowering local communities and economies.

Aggreko has demonstrated its commitment to lowering overall emissions by engaging global engineering and environmental consultancy Ricardo to test the performance of Aggreko generators on more sustainable alternative fuels.

To continue to enable marine sector customers to check their products’ compliance with upcoming international regulations to prevent air pollution from ships, Ricardo has implemented a virtual certification test service. This enables the witnessing agent, customer and its sub-system supplier to observe tests and validate quality checks safely and remotely.
