4th Annual Transportation & Climate Change Conference 2026

02 Jul 4th Annual Transportation & Climate Change Conference 2026

London, (Oilandgaspress) – The Maritime Standard has announced the fourth edition of the Transportation & Climate Change Conference (TMS TACCC) 2026, which will take place on 24 September 2026 at the Hilton Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Held under the theme “Scaling Climate Action: Finance, Fuel, Resilience & Recovery in Global Transport,” the conference will bring together policymakers, regulators, shipowners, port authorities, energy producers, financiers, technology innovators, legal experts, and transport leaders to explore practical pathways toward a more sustainable, resilient, and future-ready transport ecosystem.

As the global transport sector moves from climate ambition to implementation, TMS TACCC 2026 will provide a high-level platform for industry stakeholders to address the challenges and opportunities associated with decarbonisation, energy transition, infrastructure development, digital transformation, and investment readiness. The conference will also examine the growing importance of resilience and recovery in a rapidly evolving geopolitical and economic landscape.

Transport remains one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions, placing increasing pressure on governments and industry to accelerate the transition toward lower-carbon operations. At the same time, supply chain disruptions, changing trade patterns, infrastructure modernisation requirements, and emerging regulatory frameworks are reshaping priorities across the transport sector.

TMS TACCC 2026 will focus on how finance, fuel innovation, technology, infrastructure, and policy can collectively support the transition while ensuring long-term competitiveness and operational resilience.

The conference programme will feature two strategic sessions covering critical issues facing the sector.

Session One: Delivering Net-Zero Maritime: Regulation, Markets & Investment Readiness will examine evolving regulatory frameworks, carbon pricing mechanisms, financing models, alternative fuel pathways, and geopolitical developments influencing maritime decarbonisation and investment decisions.

Session Two: Technology & Infrastructure: Scaling Decarbonized Transport Ecosystems will explore the role of digitalisation, artificial intelligence, alternative fuel infrastructure, carbon accounting systems, green ports, electrification, and supply chain innovation in enabling large-scale transport decarbonisation.

Commenting on the launch, Trevor Pereira, Managing Director of The Maritime Standard, said: “The transport sector stands at a critical juncture. While climate targets have been established globally, the challenge now lies in implementation. TMS TACCC 2026 has been designed to bring together the stakeholders who are shaping the future of transport and to facilitate meaningful dialogue around the practical solutions needed to accelerate decarbonisation while maintaining economic growth, resilience, and competitiveness.”

He added, “The conference will provide an important forum for collaboration between industry, government, investors, technology providers, and the wider transport community. Through informed discussion and knowledge sharing, we aim to contribute to the development of scalable and commercially viable solutions that can support the transition to a more sustainable transport future.”
