The event organised in conjunction with the European Community Shipowners' Association (ECSA) will take place in 19 February from 11:00 to 14:00 in Brussels.

ESPO will introduce and moderate a session on ports’ perspective with regard to decarbonisation of shipping where three ports will present their views. The European port sector will be also represented in the panel discussion with shipping industry stakeholders.
