Have you been too busy to submit your abstract for the inaugural Propulsion & Future Fuels 2018? There’s still time! The deadline has been extended until Friday 13th April. Make the most of the extra time and submit your abstract now!

The Motorship Propulsion & Future Fuels Conference will take place over two days and will consist of joint sessions and two separate streams which will maximise the topics and focus on the specifics of either propulsion technology or low flashpoint / alternative fuels.

The Conference will continue to address solutions for efficient and clean propulsion technology and will look ahead to ways of decarbonising the maritime shipping sector.

The Motorship Propulsion & Future Fuels Conference welcomes submissions in the fields listed below. Abstracts can detail R&D projects, case studies, trial results, descriptions of technological challenges and solutions, or operational feedback on new technologies.
