Why electrification

Strengthening energy
security and efficiency

Maritime operations have historically relied on conventional fuels to move goods, drive economies, and connect global trade. As the industry looks to the future, electrification offers a new pathway - enabling vessels, ports, and offshore assets to access cleaner, more flexible, and more resilient energy sources.

By electrifying maritime operations, we strengthen energy security, reduce operational costs, and complement emerging low-carbon fuels by maximising energy use efficiency. As battery and charging technologies accelerate, electrification is becoming a critical foundation for commercially viable, scalable decarbonisation across the maritime sector.

The vision

We’re building the networks, systems, and models to connect vessels, ports, and power grids - transforming maritime from an energy consumer into an active force in the global energy transition.

How we move maritime from challenge to opportunity

  1. The challenge is structural

    Maritime electrification is advancing, but system level barriers like fragmented infrastructure, commercial complexity, and grid integration are slowing progress.

  2. Maritime can be an energy asset

    Electrification redefines the relationship between maritime and energy, enabling ports and vessels to play new roles in the clean energy system - maximising energy resilience, flexibility, and integration with onshore grids.

  3. We’re building what’s missing

    Oceon is building the networks, systems, and models that make maritime electrification scalable, investable, and aligned with the energy transition.

What we’re building

Electrification has the potential to fundamentally reshape maritime operations - and with it, enable a new kind of energy network to emerge. Electrified Ocean Networks (EONs) link vessels, ports, offshore assets, and grids into a connected, flexible energy ecosystem.

Oceon is accelerating this transition by building the infrastructure, partnerships, and market models that make large-scale maritime electrification commercially viable. Ports become critical energy hubs, and vessels gain access to cleaner, more flexible energy across expanding networks.

This transformation doesn’t happen on its own. It requires a new approach - one that connects infrastructure, markets, and partnerships to unlock scalable, investable solutions.

Built by people who know the sea and the grid

Our team brings decades of experience across ship design, marine operations, port strategy, and large-scale renewable energy development. We’ve led complex projects across vessels, ports, and power grids - and we know what it takes to connect these worlds to enable large scale maritime electrification.
