Seabound’s Bold Approach to Carbon Capture in Shipping with Alisha Fredriksson
October 24, 2024
“Shipping drives 90% of the world's economy. It's our most efficient way to move things around the world, better than land or air shipping, but it still emits around 3% of global CO2. Because of that, ship owners face growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from regulations, customers, and shareholders.” Dylan Garrett
In this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet, Dylan talks to Alisha Fredriksson, Co-Founder and CEO of Seabound. Alisha explains how Seabound’s system, housed in modular shipping containers, helps ship owners reduce CO2 emissions using the latest second-generation carbon capture technology. She shares insights on the challenges shipping lines and owners face, like meeting IMO regulations and the Poseidon Principles while highlighting Seabound’s practical, scalable solution. Alisha also reflects on her journey as a non-technical founder and the importance of curiosity and adaptability in tackling climate tech challenges.
