Sarah outlined the plans for MeLL to deliver clean, smart, maritime technologies. MeLL, announced in September 2021, will make °µÍø½âÃÜ the first city in the UK to install a network of shore-side charging facilities for its expanding fleet of electric maritime vessels. It will develop a network of charging facilities around °µÍø½âÃÜ Sound, offering multiple, flexible sites and responding to the Maritime 2050 route map for maritime net zero.
This event was hosted in the International Maritime Hub at COP26, led by Maritime UK and City of Glasgow College.
