Advanced methods of Monitoring, Reporting and Verifying of shipping emissions save money
The objective of this study is to analyse some of the impacts of the proposed MRV regulation on the shipping industry and on the wider economy and to compare the advantages and drawbacks of each of the different monitoring methods.
This study, by consultancy CE Delft, concludes that advanced fuel and emissions monitoring of large ships could help save owners and operators up to €9 million per year. These savings would come from the lower operational costs of using automated systems such as fuel flow meters or continuous emissions monitoring, which would monitor, report and verify ship emissions and fuel-burn more efficiently.
