In the 2018 active ships in European waters they have emitted 152,3 million tons of co2
The EU commission has published the data for the first time
July 2, 2019
The EU commission has for the first time published the data on the quantitative ones of co2 emitted from the ships of beyond 5.000 tons of tonnage that carry out activity of marine transport in European Economic Spazio. The publication of these information is previewed by Regolamento EU 2015/757 on the monitoring, the communication and the verification of the carbon dioxide emissions generated by the marine transport and the first data are diffused are relative to 2018 and regard the 10,800 ships of all the operating types in the course of the year in waters SEE.
The total of the produced anhydride emissions from the ships has turned out pairs to 152,3 million tons. Consisting more quantitative they are emitted by the portacontainer, with a total almost 42,0 million emitted tons of co2, continuations from the ships ro-pax (31,4 million tons), rinfusiere 17,3 million tons), from the oil tankers (16,9 million tons), chimichiere (8,7 million tons, from the fleeting ships (7,7 million tons), from the units ro-ro (6,5 million tons, from the ships for natural gas which liquified (5,4 million tons), from the multipurpose ships (5,3 million tons), from the car carrier (4,9 million tons), from the units reefer (1,8 million tons), from with-ro (1,4 million tons) and from ships of the other type (1,0 million tons).
Remembering that international the marine transport is responsible world-wise of the 2-3% of all the total gas emissions greenhouse, the EU commission has announced that it will analyze these first data carefully and it will publish a specific relation in the end of this year to the aim to allow an appraisal of the emissions of co2 and energy efficiency of the marine transport.
