Ship operators, ports and cargo owners around the world can now revolutionise their journey to Net Zero through NatPower and its groundbreaking clean Energy-as-a-Service model.
NatPower is a trailblazing independent clean energy enabler with a mission to cut emissions drastically across the global maritime sector. Their aim is to remove a critical bottleneck – the need for clean energy infrastructure onshore, at anchorage and offshore.
NatPower Marine is led by CEO and Managing Director Stefano D.M. Sommadossi (founder of NextEnergy Capital, WiseEnergy, Nexcentrica) and Chairman Fabrizio Zago (founder of Building Energy; BE Charge), both with more than 25 years of experience in renewable energy in five continents.
NatPower Marine is set to deliver a comprehensive, clean Energy-as-a-Service, facilitating onshore and offshore electrification, including anchorage. This will be accomplished through a meticulously planned network of clean energy infrastructure strategically positioned in vital global locations. As a testament to our dedication to steering the marine sector towards clean energy, we have established hydrogen filling stations (crafted by Zaha Hadid) strategically located in commercial ports, catering specifically to service vessels. Additionally, they have launched NatPower H for the leisure sector, backed by a substantial €100 million investment across multiple locations in the Mediterranean Sea.
NatPower Marine’s solutions are rooted in collaboration and a deep understanding of the requirements of ship operators, ports and cargo owners.
NatPower has brought together a high level-team of experts in maritime and renewable energy innovation, comprising:
Paul Barker, Commercial Director, has a wealth of global experience from the ports, supply chain & logistics, infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors, having worked for Wallenius Wilhelmsen, London Medway Ports, Unifeeder and PD Ports.
Martin Olverson, Business Development Director, has an impressive background in the marine offshore oil & gas sector, container shipping and port-centric warehousing, including roles at Peel Ports, Maersk and Reflex Marine.

“We are a well-capitalised global energy provider and developer, with presence in North and South America, UK, Europe and Asia, determined to accelerate the transition to Net Zero in maritime, one of the most challenging-to-address sectors, with a need of 4.0 PWh of electricity by 2025, the amount consumed by the US in a year,” says Stefano D.M. Sommadossi. “Acting as a long-term partner, we will use our data-led insights to understand the needs of our customers and provide them with integrated services and end-to-end infrastructure.”
