In this episode of The Schelling Point, CEO of the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD), Professor Lynn Loo explores how she moved from being an engineering professor at Princeton to leading one of the world’s most influential organisations in maritime decarbonisation. As GCMD focuses on building trust in alternative fuels and accelerating their adoption, Lynn sees another task at hand: encouraging collaboration across the shipping ecosystem. She explains why maritime decarbonisation is uniquely challenging: fragmented fleets, long assets lifespans, and immature fuel technologies. And how, despite all that, she remains a pragmatic optimist.
