The world’s biggest problem is a gas problem. And since 'what gets measured gets managed,' every ship should have a CO2 meter alongside its speed log - to track emissions of greenhouse gases like CO2, CH4, and N2O in real time.
Relying on standard off-the-shelf emissions factors presents growing challenges in the evolving shipping landscape. Current limitations: Emissions factors do not account for real-world variations in fuel combustion efficiency, operational conditions, or fuel quality. For example, methane slip from LNG engines can fluctuate significantly with load, resulting in estimates that may not accurately represent actual performance. Future complexities: With the rise of new fuel types and fuel blending, establishing accurate emissions factors will only become more challenging, making compliance increasingly complex.
Direct emissions measurements provide a precise, reliable solution as it reflects actual operational performance, ensuring accurate reporting and compliance. The Tunable emissions analyser integrates into Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS), providing precise, real-time data that can reduce GHG emissions and costs.
Many ship owners currently opt to assess their emissions by relying on off-the-shelf emissions factors multiplied by fuel consumption. Unfortunately, this approach often leads to an overestimation of emissions, consequently resulting in shipowners paying significantly higher taxes than necessary. By adopting a more sophisticated and individualized approach to emission monitoring, ship owners can not only reduce their tax burden but also contribute to a more environmentally sustainable and economically efficient maritime sector.
