Study on assessment of possible global regulatory measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping

closed

The main goal of the study is to help prepare for and feed into the discussions in the IMO (International Maritime Organisation) on emission reduction measures for the international shipping sector and their impacts on states in the framework of the IMO strategy on reduction of GHG emissions from ships. To be able to define the reduction measures needed to be in line with the temperature goal of the Paris Agreement, and assess their impact on states, a sound methodology is required taking into account the different issues such as the reduction potential, possible cost implications, projections of future trade growth and demand for shipping, etc.
