The document summarizes the Marine Roadmap and Capability Study conducted in 2011/2012 to identify priority opportunities for the UK marine industries to focus on. The study was funded by the Technology Strategy Board and Transport KTN and involved workshops with industry, academia, and stakeholders. It identified 30 leading market opportunities within 4 major groups: integrated transport, marine renewables, low carbon/green shipping and propulsion, and marine ICT. The roadmap aims to inform the scope of the Vessel Efficiency Competition.

10. Roadmap key outputs
• Priority opportunities characterised by
workshop participants
• Also reviewed by steering group against
criteria of value for investment
– Value of the Global market opportunity
– Fit = UK capability to deliver
– Timeliness and impact
– Added value (can TSB make a difference)
• Informed scope & direction of Capability Study
enquires@transportktn.org www.transportktn.org

11. Leading market opportunities
Roadmap identified 30 top ranked areas
that would benefit from investment.
These fall into 4 major opportunity groups:
– Integrated Transport with other modes
– Marine Renewables
– Low carbon/green shipping and propulsion
– Marine ICT
First two already being invested in nationally
so last two to be addressed in the
competition www.transportktn.org

12. • The Transport KTN is running two more free information days to raise
awareness and explain how to participate in this funding opportunity:-
Glasgow, Grand Central Hotel - 5 December
Mersey Maritime, Liverpool – 11 December
• These are for anyone interested in developing a greater understanding of
the scope and rules of the competition, and finding collaborative partners.
• To stay up to date with news of the Competition and book a place at one
of these events join the Transport KTN’s Vessel Efficiency sub group at:
