Objectives and description

The Directorate General for Environment and Climate of the European Commission has published a call for tenders for a “Study on methods and considerations for the determination of greenhouse gas emissions reduction objectives for international shipping” - CLIMA.B.3/ETU/2017/0012.

 

The aim is to contribute to the IMO discussions on target setting as part of an IMO GHG reduction strategy for ships to be initially agreed in spring 2018 and amended by 2023. For a reduction target in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement a sound methodology is required taking into account issues like the reduction potential, possible cost implications, projections of global trade growth and demand for shipping.

 

After analysing relevant existing studies and policies on reduction targets the study should describe and classify reduction options for shipping and how these fit in with the goals from the Paris Agreement.

 

The study should produce:

·         recommendations on targets for international shipping;

·         produce a roadmap for technological developments needed to decarbonise shipping;

·         provide a list and recommendations of possible policy measures to implement the objective.

 

It should also help involve stakeholders in the debate and help disseminate the results among stakeholders.
