Our Observers
With the goal of influencing public and private stakeholders’ in and outside the maritime industry, the MBF collaborates with universities and governmental organizations by sharing knowledge and information and keeping them up to date on the latest developments from the industry.
Especially if this is not your core business. An average shipowner doesn’t have a battery expert to keep track of the latest developments in battery technology. Most shipyards or ship designers do not have the time to invest in educating their people on the latest insights in maritime battery safety. And that is why we support our members with providing them with a neutral source of information, so that they can focus on making, using and understanding batteries in the best way possible.
