Advancing marine infrastructure and sustainability holds the number #7️⃣ spot in COVE's #YearInReview! 🌊🚢 COVE’s #MarineTerminal is a hub of innovation and sustainability in the global marine sector. Located along #HalifaxHarbour, it supports marine technologies and vessel operations, fostering collaboration across industries. Spanning 51,000 m², the terminal features two finger piers, a small boat facility, and accommodates commercial, research, and military vessels year-round. With water depths of 15 meters, crane capabilities up to 200 tons, and wharf-side electrical stations with 600 VDC power, it meets the needs of advanced marine operations. Additional amenities like floating docks, high-speed internet, and potable water ensure efficient operations for marine innovators. This year, the terminal demonstrated its global significance during the SailGP races, which marked the sport’s Canadian debut. Ahead of the event, COVE hosted an Ocean Connector session featuring Billy Gooderham, Flight Controller for the Canadian SailGP Team (NorthStar SailGP Team). He offered a behind-the-scenes look at the groundbreaking technology propelling the F50 catamarans—vessels capable of flying above the water at nearly 100 km/h. COVE also engaged with the Emirates Great Britain SailGP Team, to highlight shared goals in climate action, such as reducing emissions in maritime transportation and scaling innovative solutions to accelerate sustainable practices. The terminal was also instrumental during COVE Demo Day, providing essential docking space for a wide range of vessels and facilitated deployment and operations of various technologies. Beyond Demo Day, the terminal hosted a variety of vessels throughout the year, such as research vessels, military ships, electric vessels, and workboats. Many COVE resident companies also rely on the marine terminal regularly to test, maintain, and accelerate their technologies. In November, COVE’s terminal hosted a large-scale security exercise with the Port of Halifax, simulating emergency response scenarios. This exercise, involving multiple organizations, underscored the terminal's role in supporting marine safety and emergency preparedness, ensuring the region remains resilient in the face of potential maritime threats. COVE’s terminal is a vital centre for marine #innovation and collaboration supporting diverse sectors of the #MarineEconomy while advancing sustainable solutions and driving global marine innovation.

I can't be the only one who dreams of catching a fast train from Melbourne to Sydney. Actually, I'd settle some days for a bullet train to Geelong... I know it's a complex issue in Australia (I'll avoid posting the scene from Utopia), but this piece of global thought leadership has some really interesting observations about the challenges and opportunities (including scepticism) https://lnkd.in/diZB6R4z #AECOM #HighSpeedRail #Rail #Transit

The Port of Seattle has become the first port in the nation to independently require that 100% of all cruise vessels homeported in Seattle be shore power capable and utilize shore power. The order passed by the Port of Seattle Commission takes effect in the 2027 cruise season, three years before the Port’s previous goal of 2030. Plugging into shore power reduces diesel emissions from cruise vessels at berth by 80% on average. During the 2023 season, cruise ships using shore power avoided emitting 2,700 metric tons of greenhouse gases and 0.75 metric tons of diesel particulate matter — the equivalent of nearly 650 passenger cars driving for a year. The Port is finalizing the electrification of Pier 66 and plans to connect cruise ships to shore power there this summer. This milestone will make shore power available at all three Seattle cruise berths, which will achieve the Northwest Ports Clean Air Strategy goal to electrify all cruise berths by 2030, six years early. It will make Seattle one of the first cruise ports to offer shore power at all of its multiple berths. #bunkering #bunkermarket #energy #shipping #maritime #shipowners #decarbonization #energytransition #oilandgas #ports #marinefuels #usa #seattle #portofseattle #seattleport #shorepower #shoretoship #cruiseships #carnivalcruise https://lnkd.in/dm2wX7v2

EU TEN-T adopted. Are Fingal CoCo and others listening? "Airport Connectivity: Major airports handling over 12 million passengers annually must be connected by long-distance rail, improving passenger connectivity and making rail a competitive alternative to domestic flights." When will we see a heavy rail connection to Dublin Airport? Most likely as an emergency solution to current coastal line succumbing to sea level rise and storm damage (IMO).
