Does the EU ETS want to be included in shipping? IMO Secretary-General wrote a letter

It is reported that IMO Secretary-General Lin Jize recently sent a letter to senior EU officials, expressing his concern that the EU Emissions Trading System (EU-ETS), including shipping matters, could undermine global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

In a letter to the President of the European Parliament Martin Schulz and the President of the European Council Jean-Claude Juncker, Lin Jize acknowledged that the EU has an ambitious policy to deal with emissions and acknowledged that the member states wish to strengthen the progress made so far. However, he expressed his opposition to the expansion of the EU-ETS to include ships. Lin Keze said that his decision to extend the EU-ETS to shipping emissions is not only an early decision, but also seriously affects IMO's efforts to handle international shipping greenhouse gas emissions. The inclusion of ship emissions in the EU-ETS clearly risks risking damage at the global level. This letter was issued after the European Parliament's Environmental Committee made an agreement on December 16, 2016, which stated that if the IMO did not further implement global measures to reduce international shipping greenhouse gas emissions by 2021, ship emissions from 2023 onwards. It should be included in the EU-ETS system.

The IMO is a specialized agency of the United Nations that is responsible for shipping safety and security and for preventing marine and atmospheric pollution from ships. Its efforts to address shipping greenhouse gas emissions have entered a later stage. In 2011, IMO became the first international organization to implement mandatory performance measures in the industry. Its technical and operational requirements for new and existing ships came into effect in 2013. In October 2016, IMO passed a mandatory data collection system for fuel consumption, which will be applied globally. The IMO also approved a roadmap for developing a comprehensive strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ships, and an initial greenhouse gas reduction strategy is expected to be adopted in 2018. These measures have been unanimously agreed by IMO member states, including EU member states. In his letter, Lin Keze said that this not only demonstrates the leadership and role of IMO as a global institution for the development and implementation of international shipping requirements, but also confirms that IMO is promoting this work and achieving it with all IMO members, including EU member states. The only suitable institution for political cooperation within. This kind of political cooperation is important to ensure that all countries act together to ensure that no one is abandoned.

Lin Jize said that any unilateral or regional action that conflicts or destroys IMO's serious thinking and actions will threaten IMO's unified regulatory system worldwide. Regional or unilateral actions will undermine the broader international community’s goal of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions from ships and are contrary to the overall objectives of the Paris Agreement. IMO is continuing to move towards the goal of implementing international shipping solutions globally and through cooperation among all its member states, including EU member states. In early December 2016, the IMO Council decided to authorize two meetings of the MEPC Task Force on the Reduction of Marine Greenhouse Gas Emissions during the 2017 period (for the first time to be held from June 26 to 30), indicating that the IMO The importance and urgency of this issue. At the same time, IMO will continue its efforts to provide relevant assistance to developing countries through major capacity building projects for energy efficiency in ships.
