SUMMARY:Net-Zero Hour- April
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: \nMaking Waves: Data\, AI\, and the Future of Wave Analysis \nAbstract \nJana is the CEO and Founder of NeuWave. She presents a career trajectory from academia where she developed AI clustering models within medical research\, to combining cutting-edge methods with high societal impact within Oceanography. She then went on to found her company NeuWave\, inspired by her ambition to take her research to industry level. \nJana talks about the challenges of pre-boom AI development\, safety-critical maritime decision-making\, using NeuWave’s R&D advances. Joining her N0MES PhD student Kai\, will present his work on machine learning-driven clustering of wave regimes\, demonstrating how these methods are being applied within NeuWave’s broader research agenda. \nPresenter\nKai Simpson\, PhD Student at N0MES CDT and his industry partner Jana Stella\, CEO and Founder of NeuWave

SUMMARY:Net-Zero Hour - May: Barriers for Decarbonisation Investments in Maritime SMEs
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: \nBarriers for Decarbonisation Investments in Maritime SMEs \nAbstract \nMaritime decarbonisation has become a critical priority in achieving global net zero targets\, yet small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face disproportionate challenges in adopting low-carbon technologies. This study presents a structured literature review that identifies and synthesises the key barriers influencing decarbonisation investment decisions in maritime SMEs. Drawing on existing research across maritime transport\, energy efficiency\, and sustainability transitions\, the study categorises barriers into thematic dimensions\, including financial\, technological\, organisational\, and regulatory factors. The review highlights that these barriers are often interrelated and create compounded risks that hinder investment decision-making under uncertainty. Furthermore\, the findings reveal a lack of integrated frameworks in the literature to systematically prioritise these barriers. By consolidating and structuring existing knowledge\, this study provides a foundation for future empirical and methodological research\, particularly in applying decision-support tools to enhance decarbonisation strategies within the maritime SME sector. \nPresenter\nChia-Hsun Chang\, Reader (Associate Professor) in Maritime Logistics\, Liverpool John Moores University \n \nREGISTER HERE. \n\n

SUMMARY:Net-Zero Hour - June: Emerging Voices in Net Zero Research
DESCRIPTION:Net Zero Hour – Emerging Voices in Net-Zero Research\n\n\nJoin us for Net Zero Hour: Emerging Voices in Net-Zero Research\, an engaging seminar showcasing innovative research from three emerging researchers tackling some of the key challenges in the transition to a sustainable and resilient future. \nAbstract \nThis session will explore cutting-edge work across offshore renewable energy\, coastal climate resilience\, and green hydrogen technologies. Topics include improving the performance and efficiency of floating offshore wind farms through advanced wake-flow simulations\, investigating the use of dredged sediments in coastal nature-based solutions to enhance resilience and biodiversity under sea level rise\, and developing additively manufactured electrodes for direct seawater electrolysis to support sustainable hydrogen production. \nTogether\, these presentations highlight the interdisciplinary research and technological innovation helping to shape the future of net zero energy\, infrastructure\, and coastal systems. \n\nPresenters \nHear from Quisha Graham\, Tom Fearon and Hruthik Vandanapu\, three N0MES CDT postgraduate researchers who will be delivering an overview and update on their current PhD research. \n \nREGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:Net-Zero Hour - July. Tidal Range Energy Development in an Estuarine Basin: Opportunities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview\n\nTitle\nTidal Range Energy Development in an Estuarine Basin: Opportunities and Challenges \nAbstract\nThe presentation will review the background to the need for renewable energy\, by outlining the benefits of indigenous\, predictable and reliable energy from tidal resources. The impacts associated with the drivers of climate change\, population growth\, increasing urbanisation and the sustainable development goals will be discussed\, along with the increasing need for more electricity in the future as we move to electrification of transport\, heating etc. The UK tidal energy resource is significant and will be discussed\, along with comparisons between tidal stream and tidal range resources\, highlighting the considerable opportunities of acquiring tidal range energy from the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel; an estuarine basin with the second highest tidal range world-wide. The hydrodynamic characteristics of the Severn Estuary make this a unique estuarine basin for generating tidal energy\, with high tidal ranges and currents\, but challenging in view of the desire to protect the high levels of turbidity (with limited sunlight penetration)\, and the limited\, but unique\, aquatic life and bird populations. A number of tidal range energy schemes have been studied and designed for over the past 20 years and an overview will be given of these studies\, including in particular the recent design and operation of the proposed West Somerset Lagoon. \n  \nPresenter\n\nEmeritus Professor Roger Falconer \nRoger Falconer is Emeritus Professor of Water and Environmental Engineering at Cardiff University\, and an Independent Water Engineering Consultant. He graduated from Imperial College with a PhD in 1976\, followed by posts at the universities of Birmingham (Lecturer 1977-86)\, Bradford (Professor and Head of Department 1987-97)\, and Cardiff (Professor 1997-18). He has managed a wide range of research projects on hydro-environmental modelling and has been involved in over 100 EIA studies worldwide. He has published extensively in the field and advises UK and overseas governments\, consultants\, and water companies\, on water and environmental engineering projects\, including tidal range energy. He regularly gives general lectures and media and TV interviews on topics relating to water and energy security\, including tidal energy. He is a Fellow of the: Royal Academy of Engineering\, Chinese Academy of Engineering (For. Mem.) and European Academy of Sciences. He was President of the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (2011-15). \n \n  \nREGISTRATION WILL OPEN SOON. \n  \n\n
