Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions: A Guide to International Regulatory Compliance guides shipowners, operators and managers through compliance with the increasingly complex international regulations on reducing GHG emissions. This includes the existing application of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) for new ships, Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI), Carbon Intensity Indicators (CII) and submission of Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plans (SEEMPs).
The interlinked relationship between reducing underwater radiated noise and GHG emissions is detailed, including a new appendix that lists approximately 100 different reduction measures. A brand new chapter focuses solely on the European Union’s new Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), addressing the significant confusion surrounding its application to all ships trading in and out of the European Union. Readers can expect to be better informed on:
• The shipping company’s responsibility under EU ETS
• What voyages are covered by the EU ETS
• What to include on emissions monitoring plans
• How to calculate the amount of allowances owed and more
