Costa Group is working on ambitious goals to reach a carbon neutral operation of their fleet, ahead of others and regulatory requirements. A dedicated department has been created to combine the technical and operational efforts on a pathway to decarbonisation. Efficient operation of the ships, preparation for the use of alternative fuels and stimulation of supply infrastructure are key focus areas. The VP Decarbonization at Carnival Maritime GmbH, Christoph Schlädor, will introduce this dedicated department and its initiatives.
