Washington Maritime Blue
Seattle, Washington, USA
June 10 to August 16, 2024

This summer Jack will be working on Washington Maritime Blue’s Joint Innovation Programs specifically relating to sustainable maritime fuels. Currently in the industry, producers only want to produce if they have users committed and users only want to commit to retrofits and new builds if they know there will already be fuel produced. This project will convene and facilitate vessel owners/operators, ports and transit agencies, fuel producers and bunkerers, utilities, research organizations, and environmental groups to seed, support, and lead strategic initiatives, collaboratives, and joint innovation projects to attempt to solve the chicken-and-egg dilemma in maritime decarbonization.
