Transportation is the most carbon-intensive sector of the economy and is seeing unprecedented inflows of investment and innovation. Close partnership with industry is needed to commercialize and scale decarbonization solutions, especially for heavy transportation segments like aviation, shipping and on-road applications like trucking. Hear from industry players that are directly in investing in the low-carbon solutions they need. Join the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and United Airlines for two panel discussions that bring together investors, innovators, and industry across air, land and sea to discuss how climate tech investments are essential to the decarbonization of heavy transportation.
Panel 1: Direct Investments into Climate Solutions for Air and Sea
Leading companies in some of the most hard-to-abate sectors of the economy like aviation and shipping are directly investing in the climate solutions they need to achieve their decarbonization goals. Through venture arms, strategic acquisitions, or partnerships that enable new, low-carbon product and service offerings, hear how these companies are accelerating commercialization of carbon capture, electric aircraft, alternative marine vessels and fuels, sustainable aviation fuel and more.
Panelists:
Steve Taub – JetBlue Technology Ventures;
Andreas Mündel – Deutsche Post DHL Group;
Lauren Riley – United Airlines; Gail Grimmett – Delta Air Lines;
Lee Kindberg – Maersk
Moderator: Dana Mecomber, PANYNJ
Panel 2: Catalyzing Solutions Through Early Commitments
Alternative, sustainable, and low carbon fuels are essential to decarbonizing the transportation sector. Hear from innovators commercializing alternative fuels at scale today. We will discuss what is on the horizon as it relates to evolving low-carbon products, services, technology transfer, and scientific breakthroughs, and how these will impact the transportation sector.
Panelists: Adam Klauber – World Energy; Erin Lane – Plug;
William Goodwin – Joby Aviation;
Ruben Tins – Renewable Energy Group, Inc.
Moderator: Bill Abolt, AECOM
This event is sponsored by United Airlines.
