This question becomes our mission, and our mission drives us to provide the solution.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/rh2iwer.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Future-Proof-Shipping-Logo-RGB_BLUE-ORANGE.png” title_text=”Future Proof Shipping Logo %91RGB%93_%91BLUE ORANGE%93″ url=”https:\/\/futureproofshipping.com\/” url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”150%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”1.6em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Future proof shipping <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n We are a small yet formidable team when it comes to developing realistic and practical sustainable shipping solutions. We have taken on the challenge to prove that zero-emission shipping is not only possible but it\u2019s achievable at a reasonable cost that is priceless for our planet. Our aim at FPS is to have twenty-five zero-emissions ship projects kickstarted by 2030, and we have successfully retrofitted our first inland container vessel fuelled 100% by green hydrogen, the H2 Barge 1. FPS joined RH2IWER to accelerate the transition to a zero-emissions shipping world. As part of the project, FPS will be retrofitting two more diesel-powered inland container vessels to hydrogen propulsion. After conversion, these vessels will be fuelled\u00a0<\/span>100% by green hydrogen.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/rh2iwer.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/UNIGE_logo-scaled.jpg” title_text=”UNIGE_logo” url=”https:\/\/unige.it\/” url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”150%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”1.6em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The University of Genoa<\/strong><\/a> (UNIGE) is an education and research institution, founded in XV Century, in which academics, students and administrative and technical staff participate in the exercise of the respective competences, functions and responsibilities.
