NEW YORK, Sept. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The shipping industry is working towards full decarbonization by 2050 at the latest and last year an action plan was launched on which both private and public actors can focus their collective efforts around this and coming decades.

Key Points: 
  • In terms of progress on technology and supply of SZEF (Scalable Zero Emission Fuels), the report found that shipping is only "partially on track.''
  • It adds that current orders for SZEF-ready ships should increase further, whilst a genuine zero carbon freight market is expected to emerge.
  • Katharine Palmer, Shipping Lead at the UN High level Climate Champions team said: "To achieve the 2030 Breakthrough goal we need near-term project level action describing tangible, collective action required.
  • This report provides evidence for the significant progress which has been made to decarbonize shipping, yet at the same time shows thatfurther significant action is required.
