Overview of Ports’ Sustainable & Shore Power Ambitions
Most ports have the ambition to become carbon neutral by 2050. This typically excludes vessel emissions and focusses on Scope 1/2 port operations only. A significant portion of ports around the world have signed shore power declarations to ‘deploy shore-side electricity by 2028 where possible’, including all large North Sea ports, Los Angeles, Montreal and all large Japanese ports. Cruise and container vessels are the primary target for most ports’ regulations and EU will start taxing vessels via EU ETS from next year onwards.
EU ETS Maritime
EU ETS will serve as a carbon tax for the maritime industry. At current price level, it will increase fuel cost by at least €200 - €300 per mT fuel.

ISO 8178 - Exhaust Emission Measurement
ISO 8178 is an international standard for exhaust emission measurement, including marine engine applications. It is used for emission certification and/or type approval testing. Test cycles for marine (main) engines are E1-E5.
