IMO NOx regulation
IMO has adopted important guidelines aimed at supporting implementation of the mandatory measures to increase energy efficiency and reduce GHG emissions from international shipping paving the way for the regulations on EEDI and SEEMP to be smoothly implemented by Administrations and industry
Further shipping GHG emission reduction measures adopted
· IMO NOx regulation, NOx pollution standards have been set on every type of motor vehicle and on stationary industrial units, For the marine sector, at a global level, the Marine Environment Protection Committee MEPC of the International Maritime Organisation IMO agreed a three-tier structure for new engines in 2008, which would set progressively tighter NOx emission standards depending on
GHG emissions from international shipping The Fourth IMO GHG Study 2020 estimated that total shipping emitted 1,056 million tonnes of CO 2 in 2018 accounting for about 289% of the total global anthropogenic CO 2 emissions for that year and that under a voyage-based allocation method the share of international shipping represented 740 million tonnes of CO 2 in 2018

IMO 2020 – A Breath of Fresh Air – download the infographic PDF by clicking on the image 3 What must ships do to comply with the new IMO regulations? The IMO MARPOL regulations limit the sulphur content in fuel oil This means ships must use fuel oil which is inherently low enough in sulphur or install an appropriate exhaust “alternative” method in order to meet IMO requirements,

IMO continues to contribute to the global fight against climate change in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goal 13 to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts IMO has adopted mandatory measures to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from international shipping, under IMO’s pollution prevention treaty MARPOL – the Energy Efficiency Design Index EEDI
Air Pollution Energy Efficiency and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
IMO 2020 also known as Sulphur 2020 or MARPOL 2020 is a regulation officially confirmed by the International Maritime Organization in October 2016 with the aim of reducing harmful sulfur oxides SOx emissions by the maritime industry More than 60,000 shipping vessels are in operation today that fall into the IMO 2020 designation,

· The IMO’s initial strategy on the reduction of GHGs from ships sets out targets for both 2030 and 2050, The initial strategy sets an aim for the industry “to reduce CO2 emissions per transport work, as an average across international shipping, by at least 40% by 2030, pursuing efforts towards 70% by 2050, compared to 2008,” This is an aim targeting carbon intensity, or the amount of carbon
