REGULATION: International Chamber of Shipping presents revised proposal for #emissions fee and green fuel pricing incentivization Working with the governments of #Bahamas and #Liberia, the International Chamber of Shipping (#S) has presented a comprehensive new proposal to ensure delivery of the UN International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) ambitious target to achieve #netzero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from international shipping by or around 2050. Guy Platten, ICS secretary general, commented, “It is time for governments ‘bite the bullet’. Unless a distinct GHG pricing mechanism and feebate program are included in the IMO regulations adopted next year, we genuinely fear that shipping’s transition to net zero by or around 2050 will be unlikely to succeed.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/erWShY9D #Marine #Maritime #Electrification #Decarbonization #Sustainability #Environment #Technology #Transportation #EHMExpo #EHMXNA #ukimediaevents

Bunker Holding welcomes EU’s 2040 climate target On February 6, the European Commission presented its proposal for a 90 percent emissions reduction target by 2040 as can be read here: https://lnkd.in/ecsTZJ3K Bunker Holding, being a crucial part of the maritime value chain, supplying roughly 10 percent of the global shipping fleet’s fuel, has a clear part to play in supporting the shipping industry in meeting the IMO's and EU's 2030, 2040, and 2050 reduction targets. As such, we welcome this communication and commitment from the EU, as it provides long-term investment security for us to engage in partnerships, last-mile delivery arrangements, facilities, and promise of prioritised supplies of alternative fuels to the shipping industry. Especially the fact that the Commission proposes that alternative fuels, including advanced biofuels and e-fuels, should be prioritised for the shipping sector. “Shipping is a hard-to-abate sector and the significant price gap between fossil and alternative fuels constitutes a barrier for uptake of the green fuels. While IMO remains the preferred regulator of global shipping, we welcome that the EU takes a firm stance by proposing a pathway to emission reduction, and we expect that the EU will be leading by example in the crucial negotiations ahead of us at IMO. Bunker Holding is fully committed to delivering on our promise of being the industry’s preferred partner in supplying the low- and zero-emission fuels of the future,” says Keld Rosenbæk Demant, CEO of Bunker Holding. We at Bunker Holding look forward to the tabling of concrete EU legislative proposals in the coming years and are determined to contribute to ensuring that shipping can deliver its part to decarbonisation. #BHG #Shipping #EUComission

To deliver on the goal of net zero emissions for shipping by 2050, IMO greenhouse gas regulations must rest on solid foundations. Liner shipping is committed to decarbonising quickly and efficiently, and to support this process the World Shipping Council (WSC) has published its first contribution to negotiations at IMO MEPC 81, with a paper outlining four cornerstones critical to an effective IMO GHG agreement. #bunkering #energy #shipping #marine #maritime #petroleum #shipowners #decarbonization #technology #digitalization #energytransition #sustainable #oilandgas #cleanenergy #carboncapture #ports #greenenergy #greenshipping #netcarbonzero #society #sustainability #bunkermarket #europe #usa #uk #canada #uae #netherlands #singapore #germany #sweden #norway #denmark #finland #belgium #worldshippingcouncil #wsc #imo #imoghg #mepc81 https://lnkd.in/dMpKTz3z

🚢 In the news: A survey of Reed Smith LLP clients revealed that transport professionals believe 100% sustainable fuels are more than 15 years away and that fossil LNG is the most likely transitional fuel over the next three to five years. More than a third of the up to 50 respondents thought that cost, sustainable energy and inadequate infrastructure were the major barriers to decarbonisation. Transportation partner Nick Austin, meanwhile, pointed to the fact that cost and regulatory restrictions were seen as having the biggest impact on the uptake of sustainable fuels: "“This reflects our experience in maritime decarbonisation, where companies are facing new costs, such as EU ETS, and a range of other initiatives such as the IMO’s Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) which impose both an administrative and economic burden on vessels to reduce emissions.” 📰 Read the full story on Seatrade Maritime News: https://lnkd.in/eTRRvWyE #CMAShipping #Maritime #Sustainability

The EU's FuelEU Maritime regulation is shaking up the shipping industry with its ambitious emissions targets and focus on 'well-to-wake' assessments. But with navigating the regulatory maze proving a daunting task, companies are left wondering if they can keep up with the shift to sustainable fuels fast enough. While tools like zero44's calculator offer a lifeline, the playing field is tilting and market disadvantage looms large. This regulatory bombshell comes at a time when the global energy landscape is in chaos. Even with 'Net Zero' ambitions, economic backlash, infrastructure limitations, and critical mineral bottlenecks threaten progress. Oil and gas still cling to life, while 'clean' solutions come with their own set of challenges. Wisdom guides us to pursue ambitious goals while respecting the pace of technological advancement. Perhaps a balanced approach, where innovation and practicality walk hand-in-hand, will lead to the most sustainable progress. https://lnkd.in/d2rGsHzJ #shippingindustry #climatepolicy #sustainablefuels #netzero OCIMF (Oil Companies International Marine Forum)

Singapore-flagged vessels have reached a milestone in reducing carbon emissions with the launch of the Eagle Veracruz, a large crude carrier partially powered by cleaner liquefied natural gas (LNG). LNG-powered carriers like the new Eagle Veracruz are designed to minimise friction, enhance efficiency while sailing, and incorporate safeguards against methane gas leakage during storage. The main engine is also engineered to accommodate future retrofit options, ensuring adaptability when low or zero-carbon fuels become more economically viable. “Shipping must play a role in reducing its emissions and contribute to the fight against climate change,” emphasised Minister for Sustainability and the Environment Grace Fu. Moving towards achieving cleaner energy, Singapore aims to create sustainable maritime ecosystems by working with partners, establishing green and digital shipping corridors, and developing standards for future marine fuels like methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen.
