Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) Technical File
The goal of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent until 2030 and subsequently by another 50 percent until 2050. To achieve these targets, the "Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index" (EEXI) will come into force in June 2021 and will apply to all vessels over 400 GT under MARPOL Annex VI from 2023 onwards.
PART III OF THE SEEMP - SHIP OPERATIONAL CARBON INTENSITY PLAN
The Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) is a rating system for ships that the International Maritime Organization (IMO) developed. This will be a mandatory measure under MARPOL Annex VI, which comes into force in 2023.
Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage
The share of the transportation sector in the emission of greenhouse gases in the world is 25%, of which 2.9% is the emission of pollution related to the marine industry. The change in global laws in order to reduce the environmental impact has forced the shareholders of the marine industry to implement measures in the direction of decarburization.
ABS releases Requirements for Onboard Carbon Capture
ABS has launched a set of requirements to help guide the industry in the adoption of carbon capture at sea.
Ammonia as a marine fuel
Ammonia has attracted wide interest as a source of zero emission fuel for shipping. Ammonia has the key benefit of being easier to store than hydrogen, i.e. nearly identical to propane (LPG) at low pressure under ambient conditions. Hence, the cost of storage per energy unit is significantly cheaper than either hydrogen, electricity in batteries or LNG.

Emission regulations and the future of ships
With the entry into force of IMO’s Carbon Intensity Indicator, future of a third of the world’s ships hangs in the air
The wind propulsion technology
A key strategy to lessen the industry's carbon footprint and aid in the fight against climate change is wind propulsion. Numerous technological developments present excellent opportunities. These approaches, including ours, enable the creation of effective and affordable wind propulsion systems that can be applied to a wide range of ships.
The maintenance and inspections for fixed carbon dioxide fire-extinguishing systems
Fixed gas fire-extinguishing systems generally work by either lowering the oxygen concentration in the surrounding atmosphere to a level where combustion becomes impossible or by disrupting the essential chemical reactions needed for the fire to continue spreading.
ISWG-GHG 12
GHG Working Group finalizes guidelines to support implementation of carbon intensity measures and agrees to further develop a "basket of candidate mid-term measures" including technical and carbon-pricing elements.
