Roberto Cazzulo Chairman of the IACS Council and of RINA Services S.p.A. IMO Symposium on a Sustainable Maritime Transportation System London, 26 September 2013 Energy Efficiency and Implementation of New Technologies in the Context of Sustainable Shipping
Summary Role of new technology and innovation Air emissions Energy efficiency Safety
Sustainability Safety Society Economy Environment Ships are part of an integrated logistics and transport chain and therefore need an effective and efficient supporting infrastructure
Some challenges Verification that any new technologies are commercially available and their performance is satisfactory in the long term Analysis of the impact of one regulation or piece of equipment on others, e.g. safety or environmental issues Examination of the economic impact, i.e. cost-benefit analysis
Global Logistic Chain Loading and unloading Transhipment Integration
Estimated annual figures IMO GHG study (2009)
Cost: emissions of CO2 Benefit: cargo capacity & transport work Energy Efficiency Design Index Environmental cost EEDI = Benefit to Society Reduction targets “X” for Bulk Carriers 20000 dwt and above 1 Jan 2013 ÷31 Dec 2014: X is 0 1 Jan 2015 ÷31 Dec 2019: X is 10 1 Jan 2020 ÷31 Dec 2024: X is 20 on or after 1 Jan 2025: X is 30 At the beginning of Phase 1 and at the midpoint of Phase 2, the IMO will review the status of technological developments and, if proven necessary, amend the time periods, EEDI reference line parameters and reduction rates

ECA NOx Tier III (2016) SECA SOx (2015) Global SOx (2020) LNG Cut NOx /SOx emissions < 20-25% CO2 emissions reduce complexities LNG as fuel 75% 0.1% 0.5%
LNG infrastructure LNG or other alternative fuels that may be considered but will not be used as an alternative to traditional marine fuels if there is not the necessary infrastructure to support it
Role of Class and IACS Verification of the EEDI Minimum propulsion power Monitoring reporting and verification Gas-fuelled ships Innovative energy-saving devices Technology qualification Structured approaches
Conclusions Ships are the most sustainable means of transport Challenge to apply new technologies or alternative fuels Interfaces with other systems Long-term performance and economic balance Ships cannot be seen in isolation Sustainability aspects need to be, and can be, measured Innovation is inextricably linked to sustainability
Final consideration The design phase for next generation of ships that will still be operating in 2050 will commence shortly
