Navigating Decarbonization Challenges in Europe's Short Sea Dry Bulk Fleet
CLIMATE POLICY, REGULATION & CARBON MARKETS
The Responsible Shipping Initiative (RSI) and DNV have unveiled a crucial study, "Decarbonization of the Short Sea Dry Bulk Fleet," co-funded by the Swedish Transport Administration. Amid growing scrutiny of the shipping industry's climate impact, the research highlights Swedish cargo owners' commitment to greener practices.
However, it also uncovers significant gaps in regulatory and economic incentives for smaller vessels, hindering decarbonization efforts. The findings underscore the urgent need for policy adjustments to support the industry's transition to sustainable shipping practices.
