Navigating the Future of Maritime Compliance

Come January 2024, the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) will set sail, ushering in a new era of carbon pricing for the maritime sector. While shipowners have been at the forefront of compliance discussions, the spotlight now turns to charterers. What role do they play in this carbon-conscious journey?

Charting the Course: The Charterers’ Carbon Commitment

In compliance with the EMISSION TRADING SCHEME ALLOWANCES CLAUSE FOR TIME CHARTER PARTIES 2022 by BIMCO, charterers bear a contractual responsibility for Emission Allowances corresponding to a vessel’s emissions. This underscores the critical importance of “Route Optimization” when navigating the waters of ETS.
