The co-sponsors represent entities involved in the fuel supply chain across many sectors, including the maritime sector, covering production, distribution and bunkering. The submission summarizes aspects of their existing or future activities of significant importance for the decision-making process targeting the finalization and the approval of the mid-term GHG candidate measure(s) at MEPC 83.
The submission provides insights on the following themes:
- Fuel producers and suppliers are part of the solution
- Future measures should take into account cross-sectoral competition
- The deployment of alternative fuels at scale requires time and funds
- Bunkering and carriage of marine fuels face a unique challenge in setting up new operations
