Digital Feature: The reality of FuelEU in numbers
Today, many owners and managers are concerned with the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), designed to reduce emissions produced by shipping. However, the author's company's projections show that the impact of FuelEU will eclipse that of the ETS around 2035 and dwarf it beyond that. Business as usual is therefore no longer an option, and progressive decisions must be made to deal with this challenge.
