  7 2021 Fuel consumptiondata: 28,171 ships of gross tonnage of 5,000 above 212 million tonnes of fuel was used in the 2021 93.95% was either Heavy Fuel Oil, Light Fuel Oil or Diesel/Gas Oil. Liquefied Natural Gas 5.95% 13,031 tonnes of Methanol; 4,849 tonnes of Ethanol; 67,580 tonnes of biofuel Marine Environment Division

  Implementing & revisingthe Initial IMO GHG Strategy .3 Further enhancement of the IMO Data Collection System .2 Safety regulations for low-carbon marine fuels .4 Development of mid-term measures – including assessments of impacts on States Revision of the Initial IMO GHG Strategy (2023) Progress in putting in place the uniform global regulatory framework aimed at phasing out GHG emissions from international shipping in line with the IMO GHG Strategy .1 Lifecycle GHG emission guidelines Marine Environment Division 10

  IMO GHG Strategy:putting in place a uniform global regulatory framework to reduce GHG emissions from ships  MEPC 78 : work together on possibly o all proposed measures contain valuable elements o further develop a “basket of candidate mid-term GHG reduction measures” (Phase II) by integrating technical and carbon pricing elements o proponents of different proposals encouraged to combining elements of their proposals o ISWG-GHG will focus on assessing feasibility, effectiveness and potential impact of candidate measures on States o timing of a future comprehensive impact assessment of a (basket of) measures to be further considered Developing a basket of candidate mid-term GHG reduction measures Marine Environment Division 11

  Implementing the InitialIMO GHG Strategy: supported by knowledge and capacity building  New project supporting “Inclusive Transition to Alternative Low-Carbon Fuels” o Tracking global availability of low/zero carbon marine fuels o Informing on latest developments in fuel/technology projects/pilots worldwide o Supporting analysis of possible carbon pricing measures  IMO Global Industry Alliance on Low Carbon Shipping o Identifying ways to overcome barriers to uptake of energy efficiency technologies and low-carbon fuels  Capacity building initiatives supporting developing countries o Supporting a ‘just and equitable transition’ o Exploring opportunities for developing countries in decarbonizing maritime transport IMO initiatives supporting regulatory discussions Marine Environment Division 12

  Towards 2050: Puttingin place a uniform global regulatory framework that supports the decarbonization transition of international shipping IMO’s challenge as global regulator of international shipping IMO’ next set of GHG reduction measures should:  Be technology and fuel-neutral, while based on ‘real’ climate impact  Facilitate the global transition towards low-carbon shipping: encourage first-movers whilst not over-penalizing existing fleet  Bridge current price gap between fossil fuels and low-zero carbon alternatives  Rapidly put in place a harmonized global-level-playing field to minimize a patchwork of regional/national carbon-pricing measures/double taxation  Ensure continued global access to affordable maritime transport services and global availability of low-carbon fuels  Minimize any disproportionately negative impacts on States Marine Environment Division 13
