Driven by EU regulations and the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) goals, the shipping industry is maintaining its course for decarbonization but making slow headway toward an alternative-fueled fleet.
DNV's latest Maritime Forecast to 2050 (MF2050) report confirms our previous finding that carbon-neutral fuels will remain expensive and in limited supply for the near future.
As such, it recommends more realistic decarbonization measures for shipping over the next decade.
