This will be done through the gradual transition to the clean and renewable sources of energy that already climb the hierarchy of motion options; to this end, visions such as the \u0022Green Deal\u0022 and the \u0022FitFor55\u0022 package (the EU\u0027s plan for the green transition) are conceived not only to support the European energetic equilibrium, but also cope for mishaps such as the pandemics, the regional wars and the altering global financial situation. It became obvious that issues such as energy security, the cost of energy for the citizen and business, and the need for a strong industrial and transportation base, had been sidelined from the political agenda or, even, taken for granted in the recent years.\nResearch shows that the use of both H2, NH3, stored in cryogenic conditions, can decarbonize the transport industry, at least locally (e.g. ports). Though, an additional problem in the adoption of the new fuels is the incomplete studying of their hazardous properties and namely their fire and explosion potential both during their production and storage, but also in their transportation modes. Big fires of fuel oil, LPG and LNG have been already studied; this is not the case for the massive use of hydrogen or ammonia for transportation fuel, however.\nNH3 has been used as fertilizer for decades, with accidents reported leading to severe injuries and deaths, due to its flammability and\/or toxicity; on the other hand, H2 is highly explosive in certain concentrations. Large-scale implementation in the maritime environment raises additional concerns on effects of spills on and into water. \nThe feasibility of emerging NH3\/H2 technologies must be checked through the production of experimental data and models for NH3\/H2 releases on and into water and the development or risk trends and input to standardization.\nIndeed, current research focuses on the implementation of new value chains for ammonia as a zero-emission fuel and energy carrier, by improving safety systems design and procedures for the control and management especially of refrigerated or semi-refrigerated liquid ammonia spills on and into water. The goal is to promote the implementation of ammonia on the waterways by demonstrating the effectiveness of the improved handling systems.\nThe \u201cgreen\u201d production and the renewable character of these fuels themselves remain also open questions, especially when referring to indices like the \u201cwell-to-wake\u201d (WtW) and the \u201ctank-to-wake\u201d (TtW) emissions. IMO can regulate the use of fuels on the basis of their WtW GHG footprint. This would not constitute a direct regulation of fuel suppliers, but would create demand for lower GHG footprint fuels, just like the sulphur regulation created demand for low sulphur fuels.\u003C\/div\u003E\n      \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022mt-5 mb-5\u0022\u003E\n          \u003Cspan\u003E\n          \u003Cb\u003EPresenter:\u003C\/b\u003E\n                      \u003Cp\u003E\n            Dr Zoi Nivolianitou\n            \u003C\/p\u003E\n                  \u003C\/span\u003E\n      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022mb-5\u0022\u003E\n          \u003Cdiv class=\u0022field__label\u0022\u003E\n        Author\n      \u003C\/div\u003E\n              \u003Cp\u003E\n          Zoi Nivolianitou\n        \u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n","dialogOptions":{"width":"700","position":{"my":"right top","at":"right top"},"closeOnEscape":true,"dialogClass":"presentation-dialog","modal":true,"title":"","classes":{"ui-dialog":"presentation-dialog"}}}]
