Primary research areas

Decarbonization in Shipping

Investigating how shipping companies develop decarbonization strategies—spanning fuel transitions, technological upgrades, and operational shifts—under the influence of organizational resources, investor pressure, and evolving institutional norms.

Investment Decision-Making in Shipping

Studying how data-driven market analysis informs strategic investment decisions in fleet renewal, technology adoption, and route planning in the maritime industry.

Shipping Strategy Under Geopolitics

Analyzing how carriers adjust routes, fleet deployment, and investment strategies in response to geopolitical disruptions, trade conflicts, and economic uncertainty.

Driving low-carbon transitions in maritime logistics

Associate Professor Liping Jiang’s research focuses on the economics and strategic management of shipping. She investigates how emission targets, financial mechanisms, and investor behavior influence decarbonization strategies in the maritime sector. Her work bridges shipping economics, market analysis, and environmental policy to guide investment in alternative fuels, technologies, and operations. 

Liping’s recent studies explore green premiums, sustainable investment in container shipping, and fuel adoption strategies using contingency theory and quantitative modelling. She leads and contributes to externally funded projects involving private and public partners, offering actionable insights for regulators, firms, and investors.  

She is motivated by the urgent need to create economically viable paths to sustainable maritime logistics. Her research contributes to UN SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure). Liping also teaches shipping economics, business analytics, and risk management, preparing students to navigate the future of global transport with responsibility and foresight.
