Strategic partnership combines AI-powered emissions intelligence with a global maritime infrastructure footprint to accelerate decarbonization across the world’s shipping fleet.
HELSINKI, FINLAND & DELFT, THE NETHERLANDS — 7 May 2026 — Awake.AI, the maritime AI company pioneering decarbonization intelligence for global shipping, today announced a strategic partnership with Tidalis, a global leader in vessel traffic services and port management with more than 40 years of operational heritage. Together, the companies will scale Awake.AI’s Emission Monitor — a smart Emission Monitoring and Reporting solution for multimodal Scope 1–3 CO₂ emissions — to ports, terminals, and authorities around the world, putting transparent, verifiable, AI-driven emissions data on every continent and accelerating shipping’s path to net zero.
From measurement to global impact
Shipping moves more than 80% of world trade and accounts for nearly 3% of global CO₂ emissions. With the IMO’s 2030 and 2050 climate targets, EU ETS for shipping, FuelEU Maritime, and emerging frameworks across the U.K., U.S., Singapore, and the Middle East, ports and shipowners now require real-time, auditable emissions data to operate. Awake.AI’s Emission Monitor turns port-call, vessel, fueling, cargo handling, power and gate-event data into automated, regulation-grade Scope 1–3 reporting — from a single terminal to an entire fleet.
Through this partnership, Emission Monitor will be embedded into Tidalis’ maritime platforms and offered jointly to customers worldwide — giving authorities, terminals, and shipping companies a single source of truth for emissions, ready for compliance, ESG disclosure, emission-reduction planning, and day-to-day operational decisions.
Global reach, local impact
With offices on three continents and representation around the world, Tidalis tracks more than 8,000 vessels and supports over 70,000 ship transits every day for ports, coastguards, and authorities. By combining Awake.AI’s emissions intelligence with Tidalis’ global footprint and trusted operational platforms, the partnership will rapidly extend Emission Monitor coverage from regional pilots to a worldwide deployment — wherever ships sail, dock, or refuel.
“Decarbonising shipping is the defining challenge of our generation — and you cannot decarbonise what you cannot measure. Partnering with Tidalis lets us put trustworthy, AI-powered emissions intelligence into the hands of port authorities, terminal operators, and shipping lines on every continent. This is how we move from pilots to planetary impact.”
— Karno Tenovuo, CEO, Awake.AI
“For decades, Tidalis has helped the world’s ports run safer and smarter. Climate accountability is now part of that mandate. Awake.AI delivers the most advanced emissions intelligence in the market, and our global footprint can put it to work fast — turning data into measurable decarbonization at the scale our industry urgently needs.”
—Geert-Jan den Besten, CEO, Tidalis
