Marginal abatement cost curves for CO2 emission reduction from shipping to 2050

To present the most detailed marginal abatement cost curves (MACCs) for CO2 emission reduction in the global shipping fleet from 2025 to 2050.
To evaluate the costs and CO2 reduction potential of over 50 measures and various fuel systems, providing insights into achieving decarbonization goals in line with global regulatory strategies.

Exploring the technical feasibility of carbon capture onboard ships

To assess the technical feasibility of implementing carbon capture systems on ships to help reduce CO2 emissions, particularly concentrating on both retrofit and newbuild vessels.

Evaluating the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII): Challenges and Recommendations for Improvements

To highlight the need for the improvement of the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) regulations based on a thorough review of current issues and literature. The study examines key challenges through online surveys and interviews with Belgian shipping companies, identifying and ranking the most urgent areas for improvement. The goal is to provide policy recommendations for stakeholders based on the identified priorities.
