Njord at London Shipping Week

🚢 London Shipping Week: A Call for Clarity & Collaboration

This week’s London International Shipping Week was a timely reminder of the momentum, and complexity, surrounding the IMO’s Net-Zero Framework. The message was consistent: the industry is preparing to move, but it needs a framework that’s both clear and fair.

At Njord we also believe that regardless of what happens in October, the real opportunity lies in driving efficiency today, through thoughtful innovation and smart use of proven technologies.

🔍 Key themes we followed closely:

1. Decarbonisation: The revised IMO strategy sets a strong direction, but questions remain around fuel readiness, infrastructure, and cost. There’s a growing call for a framework that reflects the realities of the transition.
2. Efficiency as a lever: Operational improvements continue to offer some of the most immediate and scalable gains. This is where much of our work begins—helping operators identify practical steps that make a measurable difference.
3. Novel vs. Basic Tech: From onboard carbon capture to wind-assisted propulsion, LISW showcased a wide range of solutions. We believe in being bold with new technologies, while also making the most of what’s already available.

📊 Guiding the way forward

We continue to support efforts that help operators understand their performance and where to focus next. Tools like the Njord Score are part of that journey, helping teams connect ambition with action.
