Regulation of emissions to air • Historically IMO has set the agenda through MARPOL. The challenge; • EU will enforce regulations if IMO does not manage to react with sufficient speed (GHG focus). • Encourages member states to support quick process in IMO • Recent study has identified three options: • 1 Include maritime transport in EUs Emission Trading Scheme • 2 Differentiation of harbour dues • 3 Ships calling EU ports to meet limit CO-2 Index • UNFCCC, shipping in next Kyoto Protocol • Port state specific regulations are emerging © Det Norske Veritas AS.
