1. 16. Carbon emission allocation of Ro-Pax ferry transport and the application for ferry companies

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Qiutong Xu; [2023]
   Keywords : CO2 emissions; Emission allocation; Ro-Pax ferry; Ferry transport; Passenger; Freight; CO2-utsläpp; Utsläppsfördelning; Ro-Pax-färja; Färjetransport; Passagerare; Frakt;

   Abstract : The EU has set up the target of cutting GHG emissions by at least 55% by 2030 and becoming climateneutral by 2050. Accordingly, the IMO has launched initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions per transportwork by at least 40% by 2030, however the CO2 emissions generated from the ferry operations arecontinuously increasing.
