<p>My officials and I regularly engage the maritime industry on all matters that concern
them, including reducing the sector’s emissions, as decarbonising shipping is essential
to achieve the target of net zero greenhouse gases across the economy by 2050.</p><p>The
Clean Maritime Council recently discussed the Prime Minister’s announcement of a £20m
Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition to develop clean maritime technology.</p><p>Before
this initiative, the Department funded a £1.5m competition for innovation in clean
maritime and provided £193,897 in grant support through the Department’s Transport
Technology Research Innovation Grant Programme to early stage research projects related
to clean maritime. Details of the grant winners are available, respectively, on the
MarRI-UK website<sup><sup>[1]</sup></sup> and on GOV.UK<sup><sup>[2]</sup></sup>.</p><p><strong>
