V.Group Partnership

As an industry the shipping industry has faced many challenges over the decades, but few have required the same level of coordinated response as now. As such, V.Group partnered with the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping (the Center) to help the industry transition to a net zero future. As part of our commitment to the partnership, V.Group will be working closely with the team at the Center in Copenhagen to support their work and provide practical guidance regarding safe solutions to achieve decarbonisation aims. The not-for-profit Center is working to provide global standards for green technology and fuels.

As a partner, V.Group intends to support its customers in the use of transition fuels, including green ammonia and hydrogen, in anticipation of a stricter regulatory climate. V.Group makes several of its marine specialists available to the Center in Copenhagen to provide insights about the operational practicality of proposed initiatives in a live setting.

To support this partnership, we have established a new dedicated function, headed by Matt Dunlop, Director, Sustainability & Decarbonisation.
