Study assesses role of new technologies
A new report from the LR Maritime Decarbonisation Hub and Safety tech Accelerator highlights the role of technology in enabling the shipping industry to develop specific mechanisms to track, verify and assure the true carbon intensity of sustainable marine fuels. Shipping’s decarbonisation is focused on delivering alternative fuels that significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, to be sure that alternative fuels can achieve the GHG reductions needed, emissions from the end-to-end supply chain of these fuels must also be measured, LR said, from the resource used to produce the fuels, to their consumption on board the ship....
