Green Energy with Advanced Propulsion Systems for Net-Zero Shipping

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to gather high-quality review articles focusing on advanced propulsion systems and green energy research for maritime decarbonization. The objective is to provide readers with a comprehensive platform to access a wide range of topics related to achieving net-zero in the shipping sector while offering novel methodologies, valuable insights, and perspectives on the future of shipping.

The scope of this Special Issue is not limited to propulsion systems and alternative fuels but extends to a broader set of themes. For example, contributions may address the regulatory frameworks surrounding green fuels and their resulting economic and technical implications. Furthermore, discussions may cover the environmental impacts and risk factors associated with the application of new fuels and technologies.

By embracing this technological diversity, the Special Issue intends to explore multiple dimensions through which shipping can progress toward net-zero. We warmly welcome manuscripts that seek to contribute to this effort.
