2021-2030 has been announced as the ‘Decade of Wind Propulsion’ by the International Windship Association and its 130+ members, as it is a critically important decade for the shipping industry to deliver on decarbonisation. This online event pulled together a group of leading experts in wind propulsion technology to outline a radical paradigm shift. This approach can drastically reduce carbon and other GHG emissions from shipping, using a set of technologies and approaches already available today.
The webinar provided an opportunity to present an up-to-date overview on the international wind propulsion developments and to highlight European policies in the field.
Opened by MEP Jan Christoph OETJEN, SEArica Vice-Chair in charge of Maritime Transport. With the participation of MEP Catherine CHABAUD, SEArica Vice-Chair in charge of Climate & Governance, MEP Deirdre CLUNE, SEArica Member and MEP Petros KOKKALIS, SEArica Vice-Chair in charge of Blue Economy, Maritime Industries and Ports.

What is an Intergroup?
The Seas, Rivers, Islands and Coastal Areas Intergroup is one of the 28 Intergroups that were approved in December 2024 by the Conference of Presidents for the 10th legislature of the European Parliament. Intergroups can be formed by MEPs from any political group and any parliamentary committee with a view to holding informal exchanges of views on particular issues and promoting contact between MEPs and civil society.
