Clean Tyne - UK Blueprint to Decarbonisation Project

How can we start to think about decarbonisation of the maritime industry? The Clean Tyne project will work with a number of partners to assess how our ports can become cleaner.

17 November 2021

In September, the Centre for Energy and partners namely , ,  and , were successful in the Department for Transport鈥檚 Clean Maritime Demonstration call for 鈥溾淐lean Tyne, UK Roadmap to Decarbonisation鈥.

The Clean Tyne project is part of the , funded by the Department for Transport and is delivered in partnership with Innovate UK.

The above stakeholders will work together to create a real-time digital platform which will facilitate planning and feasibility studies and help to gain a better understanding on future power needs of Port of Tyne. Outcomes of the project will be used as a data-driven evidence base to establish how a multi-vector renewables port can drive operational transition and wider compliance to deliver on the  (2019),  (2020),  and  (2050).

Dr Haris Patsios is one of the Energy and Energy Efficiency co-leads for the Centre for Energy, as well as a co-investigator for the National Centre for Energy Systems Integration

鈥淭his project presents a fantastic opportunity to apply novel concepts of digitalisation in real-world energy systems. We are excited to have the opportunity to research and develop new solutions for ports that cut across energy systems, marine transport, and data, in collaboration with industry and other innovators, helping reduce carbon emissions.鈥

Dr Haris Patsios, CfE Theme Lead

The involvement of the Centre for Energy and CESI in the Clean Tyne 鈥 UK Blueprint for Decarbonisation will come from of:

  • expanding the existing Techno Economic Environmental models by adding a data layer
  • include a Marine logistics Hub in the list of CESI/CfE Demonstrators
  • collect data and validate models using real data
  • connect models with Siemens digital platform and Port activities
