New policy frameworks are steering the maritime industry towards net-zero, highlighted by key agreements at the International Maritime Organisation (IMO). The consensus from MEPC 81, on measures such as the GHG Fuel Standard and Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) framework, has set the stage for stringent regulations by 2025, aimed at enhancing energy efficiency and reducing emissions. Yet, the question remains: do these regulatory advances possess sufficient strength to propel the industry towards decarbonisation? To avoid a fragmented regulatory environment and steer towards a cohesive global approach, proactive innovation from all stakeholders to adapt to new operational realities and accountability will be essential.
