INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT FORUM

Decarbonising Maritime Transport Workshop

26 - 27 November 2018 , Paris , France , International Transport Forum

 

ITF MEETING

As part of the ITF Decarbonising Transport initiative, this workshop gathered policy makers, international organisations, such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO), ship owners, shippers, port authorities, NGOs, researchers, and other key stakeholders to interact, share knowledge on best practice and identify next steps.

 

The conclusions of the workshop will serve as inputs to the ITF work on decarbonising transport and to the global discussion on decarbonising maritime transport, including the COP24 discussions in December in Poland.

 

The International Transport Forum (ITF) at the OECD is an intergovernmental organisation with 59 member countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy that covers all modes of transport. The ITF’s mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability and social inclusion and to raise the public profile of transport policy. The ITF acts as a platform for discussion of transport policy issues. It analyses trends, shares knowledge and promotes exchange among transport decision-makers and civil society.

 

MARITIME TRANSPORT

 

Maritime transport currently represents around 2½% of total global greenhouse gas emissions. These emissions from shipping could more than double by 2050 without additional policy measures The International Maritime Organization (IMO) formulated an Initial Greenhouse Gas Strategy in April 2018 which contains a vision to reach full decarbonisation as soon as possible in this century, as well as targets and candidate measures to achieve this goal. 

 

This work, together with the conclusions of a survey and workshop on maritime transport will serve as input to the ITF’s Decarbonising Transport initiative, as well as to the global discussion on decarbonising maritime transport at the 24th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 24) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and beyond.

 

OBJECTIVES OF THE WORKSHOP

 

Full decarbonisation of shipping is possible but cannot be reached without a transition towards alternative fuels, as indicated by the 2018 ITF publication: “Decarbonising Maritime Transport: pathways for zero-carbon shipping by 2035”. IMO Member countries and the shipping community will in the coming period need to focus efforts to select the appropriate candidate measures. This workshop aims to increase the knowledge base on alternative fuels in maritime transport, and as such facilitate discussions and possible decision-making process on the adoption of alternative fuels and low-carbon fuel standards as a possible way to reach this.

 

This workshop will gather policy makers, IGOs, such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO), ship owners, shippers, port authorities, NGOs, researchers, and other key stakeholders to interact, share knowledge on best practice and identify next steps. The outputs will contribute to the global discussion on feasible short-term measures for the mitigation of GHG emissions from ships. For that reason, the workshop is specifically focused on alternative fuels in maritime transport, widely considered to be important, but still fairly unexplored in terms of relevant policies and measures. Within this context, the workshop discussions shall cover:

* Perspective for alternative fuels in maritime transport
* Low carbon fuel standards: lessons from the road transport sector
* Possibilities for low carbon fuel standards in maritime transport

 

 

 

ZERO CARBON RECORD - On the 4th of May 2012, history was made, as Raphael Domjan, at the helm of a giant of a catamaran powered only by solar panels crossed the finishing line at Monaco to become the first electric boat to sail around the world. MS Tûranor PlanetSolar, known under the project name PlanetSolar, was (@ 2018) the largest solar-powered boat in the world. The vessel was launched on the 31st March 2010, also going into the Guinness Book of World Records. The project was mostly financed by Immo Stroeher, the owner of the boat.

SeaVax blue growth ocean cleaning technology

 

OCEAN CONDITIONER - The SeaVax is a zero carbon vessel designed as a workhorse to clean up marine litter. Once developed the solar and wind powered platform could be the basis of low carbon cargo and passenger ships.

 

 

The "Decarbonising Transport in Europe" (DTEU) project aims to help the European Union to achieve its CO2 reduction ambitions for the transport sector. The project will provide European policy makers with better quantitative evidence on the actual impact of CO2 mitigation measures. The ITF will develop a suite of advanced models of transport activity in Europe as part of the project. This will allow decision makers to select the most effective policy measures and identify realistic pathways to towards decarbonising transport to 2050.

The DTEU project also encompasses systematic and inclusive policy dialogue. European transport stakeholders will discuss the modelling results regarding the effectiveness of mitigation measures. This dialogue aims to encourage the implementation of collectively-developed mitigation pathways and will bring together European governments, companies, sectoral organisations, multilateral development banks and research institutions. 

The DTEU project is part of ITF's Decarbonising Transport initiative.
