FuelEU Maritime<\/a> requires operators to calculate the well-to-wake greenhouse gas intensity of each ship's fuel consumption, then reduce it over the course of a 25-year ratchet-down schedule, starting with a two percent cut next year. Simple noncompliance is a law-abiding strategy, but it is not a commercially desirable choice. The penalty for business-as-usual high carbon operation will be €2,400 per tonne of VLFSO energy equivalent – about triple the price of bunker fuel. Repeat noncompliance in sequential years increases the penalty – but operators can pool their emissions, bank up overcompliance, or borrow from future year compliance in order to reduce cost. <\/p>\nCountless consultants and class societies offer solutions for navigating this sophisticated ruleset, and some go further to attempt to monetize the regulation for finance-minded shipowners. Veson, NAPA, StormGeo, BV, DNV, Normec, BSM, LR, Wilhelmsen, OrbitMI, ABS, OceanScore and countless others have developed compliance assistance services for this new market. <\/p>\n
Owners are paying close attention, and some are reprioritizing to take action, according to a recent qualitative survey by consultancy Houlder. "[The Emissions Trading System] is not a particularly big deal. It’s small penalties compared to FuelEU. What [FuelEU] has done is shocked businesses into realizing the penalties they are going to have to pay if they don’t act on energy efficiency . . . and then eventually future fuels," one industry member told Houlder. "From an R&D point of view, these have helped secure support and budget."<\/p>\n
FuelEU Maritime is not acceptable to the German Shipowners' Association (VDR), whose chief recently called the regulation "terrible." The association is worried that it will make EU owners uncompetitive, and it wants to see international, IMO-led rules as fast as possible. <\/p>\n
"Well-intentioned is not always well done. Shipping is international, and emissions know no borders. Regional regulations such as FuelEU Maritime create a patchwork of rules. They distort international competition and are ineffective in the fight against climate change," VDR said in a statement. "The mandate from shipping to the new European Commission is clear: the EU rules and above all FuelEU Maritime must be integrated into the IMO's international measures as quickly as possible."<\/p>\n
