A live podcast recording at this year’s Energy House Day offered listeners an in-depth look at one of the most ambitious maritime decarbonisation initiatives in Europe — the Apollo Ammonia Project.
Hosted by the Sustainable Energy Norwegian Catapult Centre, the event featured a live episode of the Klimaklok podcast, with industry leaders Kaj Portin from Wärtsilä and Sverre Horgen from Eidesvik Offshore ASA joining the stage. The discussion centred on the Viking Energy vessel, which is being retrofitted with a groundbreaking ammonia combustion engine under a contract with Equinor.
The conversation highlighted the technical challenges and environmental potential of ammonia as a zero-carbon marine fuel, and provided rare insights into the collaboration between technology providers, shipping operators, and energy companies.
The episode is now available for streaming and offers a compelling glimpse into the future of sustainable shipping:
