Fuelled by the pursuit of cleaner emissions and, more recently, the geo-political impact of the Ukraine conflict, the energy transition in Europe remains a top priority. This session will focus on a nuclear power project in Poland as an example of many others in the region with a need to develop local relationships, validate proper infrastructure, and ensure projects of this scale are feasible moving forward.

Having foresight is critical for any organisation as it reveals opportunity and empowers innovation. This forward-thinking panel will discuss key trends, such as future-oriented work and sustainability, possible and necessary changes for more responsible business, expectations for the current decade, and best-case scenarios for project logistics in the coming years. The session will provide helpful insights on navigating the future in a so-called ‘age of chaos’ by addressing questions like: How might AI-chatbots and the lack of employees change the way we work? What will bring about the goal of zero carbon transport? How might modular construction transform project logistics as we know it? Join this inspiring foresight session for insight on how to co-create future scenarios for your organisation.

In light of the recent and upcoming legislation regarding carbon emissions, the industry is under pressure to be accountable for and transparent about their carbon emissions and seek renewable alternatives. However, how can C02 emissions be accurately measured and priced, especially with the variability of breakbulk cargo? Who should bear the burden of the cost, and will this restrict capacity? Will other markets follow suit and how will foreign policies conform? This panel will address the effects of such regulations and shed light on the implications for stakeholders.

Offshore wind has been experiencing exponential growth and projects are expected to ramp up, both in Europe and beyond. Yet, fleet capacity and the availability of assets must be considered in tandem with this increased activity. Speakers in this panel will assess the readiness of the supply chain to cope with increased demand and discuss how to contain the offshore boom to operate within these capabilities.

Ports are an integral part of the project cargo supply chain and, as such, changes and challenges in ports acutely affect other sectors. Currently, labour shortages, strikes, sustained increases in port charges, and inadequate port infrastructure are all impacting the wider supply chain. Collaboration across the board is required to ensure cargo movements are as efficient and predictable as possible for all parties. This session will bring together a panel from key European ports, as well as the wider supply chain, to examine the causes and possible solutions to the current challenges being faced and to map a path forward to improve efficiency across the board.
