LNG continues to be in very high demand.
GTT is pursuing its constant R&D and innovation efforts with the ambition of being a major technological player in the decarbonisation of maritime transport. As such, we obtained an important new approval in principle during the first quarter in the field of liquid hydrogen transport.
In the area of digital solutions, we completed the acquisition of VPS, a Danish company specializing in ship performance, and its integration into the Group has started.
Moreover, in January 2024, Elogen began construction of its electrolyser manufacturing plant in Vendôme, which is scheduled to start from the fourth quarter of 2025.
Regarding our CSR strategy, GTT published its first dedicated roadmap, demonstrating the Group’s commitment to a sustainable and responsible economy.
From a financial standpoint, revenues for the first quarter of 2024 show a strong increase of 81% compared to the first quarter of 2023. Revenue growth is expected to continue in the coming year, due to the growing number of vessels under construction. In this context, the Group confirms its 2024 targets”.
