Breakthroughs: Race for Green Seas

More than 80 percent of global trade travels by sea, but the industry is racing to decarbonise before climate targets slip out of reach. As the world's largest bunkering hub, Singapore is leading that transformation through an ambitious network of green shipping corridors, proving grounds for accelerating the adoption of cleaner fuels. 

Scientists are engineering advanced catalysts to produce green hydrogen more efficiently, while others are studying atomic fingerprints to verify whether a fuel sample is genuinely sustainable. 

Across the island, the development of Singapore's new mega port has reached a critical milestone. A new fleet of autonomous robots called Intelligent Guided Vehicles is set to redefine how millions of containers reach the world’s biggest container ships. 

With exclusive access to next-generation maritime infrastructure from Rotterdam to Singapore, Race for Green Seas reveals the science and engineering steering global shipping towards a cleaner future.
