Onshore Power Supply (OPS), also known as Cold Ironingor Alternate Marine Power (AMP)is a system conceived for supplying electrical power to ships at port. This allows the auxiliary engines to shut down thereby reducing air pollution and noise emissions. It is an increasingly important technology as ports and shipowners work to meet stringent environmental regulations and address urban pollution concerns.
OPS reduces CO2 emissions by over 57% during a...

The Fuel EU Maritime Regulation, effective from January 1, 2025, mandates that vessels over 5,000 gross tonnage reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions progressively. Compliance is monitored through a detailed reporting system, requiring shipowners to submit a monitoring plan by August 31, 2024.
Compliance Mechanisms: Shipowners who do not meet the target GHG intensity for the period defined in Fuel EU maritime regulation can choose between two primary compliance strategies: paying penalties...

The Fuel EU Maritime Regulation aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from shipping by a significant amount. This is achieved by encouraging the use of renewable and low-carbon fuels, progressively stricter limits on the GHG intensity of energy used by ships, and onshore power supply in ports.
The regulation is aiming for at least a 55% reduction of GHG emissions by 2030 and targeting climate neutrality by 2050 in the maritime sector. It fits in with broader EU climate goals.
The FuelEU...
FuelEU Maritime is a regulation structure in the European Union’s “Fit for 55” package that addresses the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the maritime sector. This regulation introduces several basic terms, which are important for understanding its effects and requirements. A few of those terms are explained in this article.
GHG Intensity
Greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity is the amount of GHGs emitted per unit of energy consumed onboard vessels in grams of CO2 equivalent per...

The perpetual quest to reduce emissions and make the seas cleaner and greener has paved the way for the inception, development, and implementation of various technologies and practices over the years.
These developments have accelerated at a greater pace in recent years, thanks to the ambitious new IMO GHG strategy that aims to reduce an overall index of marine emissions by at least 20% by 2030, 70% by 2040, and almost zero (net-zero) by 2050. (compared to 2008 baseline emission...

The shipping industry, the backbone of global trade, is also a major contributor to Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Developed under the structure of the Initial IMO Strategy on Reduction of GHG Emissions from Ships, technical (EEXI) and operational (CII) amendments require ships to improve their energy efficiency in the short term and thereby reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
While the basics of CII are widely understood, it is vital that we understand how to comply with these regulations...
By Shruti Srivastava Oct 15, 2024 (Bloomberg) —India is finalizing plans to offer almost $2 billion in incentives to replace fossil-fuel powered passenger vessels on inland waterways, like barges and ferries,…

The maritime industry is responsible for the production of approximately 3% of carbon dioxide emissions or 1000 million tonnes annually. Like all other sectors, global shipping faces increased pressure to decrease its carbon footprint, as climate change and global warming have become serious issues.
If nothing is done, carbon emissions could rise by 50% by 2050. However, the International Maritime Organization has put forward a strategy to tackle this situation. It includes...
