By choosing the Tyne Clean Energy Park as a commercial base, renewables businesses joining Equinor will have a unique opportunity to co-locate every aspect of their supply chains – from manufacturing and assembly operations to installation and maintenance activities. The Port\u2019s unique location on the River Tyne provides safe and efficient marine access to existing offshore wind farm sites including Dogger Bank, Seagreen and Sofia, plus outstanding air, road and rail transport links to the rest of the UK and beyond.<\/p>\n
Port of Tyne is already rapidly transforming its own commercial operations to become a low-carbon industrial hub and made a clear commitment to decarbonisation in its Tyne 2050 strategy. This outlines the Port\u2019s strategic vision to become an Enabler and Operator of clean energy powered maritime supply chain services, including being \u2018Carbon Neutral by 2030\u2019 and \u2018All Electric by 2040\u2019.<\/p>\n
Demonstrating a long term commitment to innovation, the Port of Tyne is leading the UK\u2019s first 2050 Maritime Innovation Hub, a collaboration of organisations from maritime logistics, technology and academia. Launched in response to the government\u2019s call for greater innovation in maritime, this has focused on a range of projects, including investigating the potential of renewables within Port of Tyne plus maritime relevant solutions using autonomous systems and AI.<\/p>\n
Join Port of Tyne representatives \u2013 Richard Newton, Commercial Director Logistics, and Ian Blake, Head of Information Technology \u2013 at Coastlink in 2021, where they will share their vision and insight on both short sea and feeder shipping services at the port – and the learnings from the work being completed at Maritime Innovation Hub.<\/p>\n
