3 IMO DCS 3

4 The CO 2 challenge for mankind Scientists and policy makers generally agree it is critical to limit the average global warming to no more than 2 C (1.5 C) To do this, emission need to peak very soon and then decline sharply Uncertainties significantly reduced; science points to a CO 2 stabilisation target of no more than 450 ppm Today's level is 400 ppm CO 2, increasing by 2 ppm each year 4

5 IMO DCS, why? a bit of background. IMO Assembly resolution A.963(23) 1 tasked the MEPC to identify and develop the necessary mechanisms needed to achieve limitation or reduction of GHG emissions from ships a. d. the evaluation of technical, operational and market-based solutions; As result IMO developed: as a technical measure: EEDI, as operational measures: EEOI and SEEMP, and discussed: Marked based measures (with new momentum since Paris agreement) 1 adopted in Dec

6 Fuel oil consumption Data Collection System All vessels 5000 GT need to report fuel consumption with data collection starting 1 January A plan for data collection (SEEMP Part II) to be included in the SEEMP latest 31 December 2018 An annual fuel consumption report (covering 1 January to 31 December), should be submitted and verified within 1 June in the subsequent year. A confirmation of compliance will be provided after the SEEMP Part II is updated and a Statement of Compliance will be issued after the annual report is verified and submitted to the Administration To be reported: IMO number Ship type GT, NT, DWT, Power output engines (engines over 130 kw) EEDI (if applicable) Ice class Fuel oil consumption, by fuel oil type Distance travelled Hours underway Methods used for collecting fuel oil consumption data 6

7 Fuel oil consumption Data Collection System Amendments to MARPOL Annex VI on the Data collection system for fuel oil consumption of ships have been adopted on 28 October 2016 by RESOLUTION MEPC.278(70) outstanding issues: guidelines on verification guidelines on Data base management circular for non-party ships 7

8 EU-MRV 8

9 EU-MRV regulation, why? a bit of background. EU established for EU international maritime transport a reduction target on GHG emissions (2011 White Paper on Transport 1 ). in June 2013, EU set out a revised strategy for integrating maritime emission into the EU s policy, namely Monitoring, Reporting & Verification instead of an EU-ETS and the application of a three step approach 2 : 1. Implementing a system for MRV of emissions 2. Definition of reduction targets for the maritime transport sector 3. Application of a market based measure (MBM). overall MRV-processes are blue printed from EU-ETS / Aviation (i.e. GHG- validation and verification based on ISO 14065) this might explain lack of application of general IMO shipping terms / procedures

10 EU-MRV regulation, legally binding documents. Three layers of legal documents exist: 1. the regulation itself: REGULATION (EU) 2015/757 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 29 April 2015 on the monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions from maritime transport, and amending Directive 2009/16/EC consider: regulation entered into force in July the Implementing & Delegated Regulations: i. (EU) 2016/1927 on templates for monitoring plans, emissions reports ii. (EU) 2016/1928 on determination of cargo carried for categories of ships other than iii. (EU) 2016/2071 amending Regulation (EU) 2015/757 iv. (EU) 2016/2072 on the verification activities and accreditation of verifiers pursuant to 3. Guidelines supporting the regulations are still under development (coming slides) 1 for download under: or 10

11 EU Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV): Reporting needs Reporting needs: For each ship (>5000 GT) and for each voyage* (including ballast) to, within and from EU ports 1. port of departure / arrival 2. amount and emission factor for each type of fuel consumed in total [ ] 3. CO 2 emitted 4. distance travelled 5. time spent at sea 6. cargo carried (ship type specific!) 7. transport work 8. differentiation of CO 2 emissions between sea and at berth Reporting Monitoring Verification *possible exemption from voyage reporting and rather bulk yearly reporting: all voyages during that year under jurisdiction of a Member State more than 300 voyages during the reporting period 11

12 Methods for determining CO 2 emissions Actual fuel consumption shall make use of one of the following methods: a) Bunker Fuel Delivery Note (BDN) and periodic stocktakes of fuel tanks; b) Bunker fuel tank monitoring on board; c) Flow meters for applicable combustion processes; d) Direct CO 2 emission measurements (less relevant, because no type approved equipment available) Any combination of these methods, may be used if it enhances the overall accuracy of the measurement. Fuel consumption shall include fuel consumed by main engines, auxiliary engines, gas turbines, boilers and inert gas generators. Fuel consumption within ports at berth shall be monitored/calculated separately. CO 2 emissions = Fuel consumption emission factor 12

15 overview Task Forces 15

16 Stakeholder engagement through the ESSF Under the advisory body ESSF (European Sustainable Shipping Forum), the subgroups comprised of government and industry stakeholders provide the EC with input to the practical implementation of the Regulation ESSF MRV subgroup on monitoring & reporting ESSF MRV subgroup on accreditation & verification Subgroups to complete their work and report by June 2017 Guideline Work is running as Work Packages under the Monitoring group within the A&V group, the work is covered in various Task Forces (TF s) 16

17 Task Forces in ESSF verification and accreditation subgroup (1/3) Task Force ToR s TF leader final discussion 1 TF1: Risk Assessment to be carried out by verifiers TF2: Recommendations for improvement TF3: Materiality & verification of the emissions report now: sampling To provide guidance how verifiers should use ship s tracking data from an external source and how the verifier should interpret the information for the purpose of the verification of the emissions report. To provide examples of what would be allowed and not, which serves as a preventive means in the MRV system to safeguard impartiality of verifiers, in the form of the risk of self-review. In basis verifiers would be allowed to recommend on the what, but not on the how and verifiers cannot have any role in the implementation of the monitoring plan. To provide guidance for verifiers how sampling, based on proven concepts and best practices, can be performed effectively in the context of maritime MRV. So as to allow for better understanding of the meaning of sampling for the emissions report verification. It also provides verifiers having less experience in data auditing insight in the relation of sampling with other verification activities and materiality. Torsten Mundt, DNV GL Katharine Palmer & Ged Farmer, Lloyds Register Katharine Palmer & Ged Farmer, Lloyds Register February 2017 February 2017 February final discussion means the work on finalizing the document goes on until April or Mai 17

18 Task Forces in ESSF verification and accreditation subgroup (2/3) Task Force ToR s TF leader final discussion TF4: Verification of the emissions report-backward verification To provide practical guidance on how to deal with backward verification in different scenarios (late submission of MP due to change of owner/manager, change in schedule. This both relates to content and timing. Martine Meerburg, SGS May 2017 TF5: Verification of the emissions report-to provide examples of how verification activities can be carried out by the verifier To provide examples of how verification activities can be carried out by the verifier for ships reporting under the EU MRV Regulation in different aspects such as completeness of voyages, verification of information on fuel monitoring. Julien Dufour, Verifavia May

19 Task Forces in ESSF verification and accreditation subgroup (3/3) Task Force ToR s TF leader final discussion TF6: Assessment of verifiers by NABs in order to issue an accreditation certificate TF7: How verifiers, companies and authorities should deal with the situation in which the accreditation is suspended or withdrawn TF8: Monitoring Plans Practical guidance on the best way to setup the accreditation process between verifiers and NABs; how accreditation can be received in time during the initial phase (chicken and egg issue). Practical guidance on how verifiers, companies and authorities should deal with the situation in which the accreditation is suspended or withdrawn close to the planned issuing date of the Document of Compliance (DOC) by the verifier. Practical guidance on relevant issues for verifiers assessing monitoring plan. Niels Christian Dalstrup, EA Niels Christian Dalstrup, EA Helena Athoussaki, PwC February 2017 February 2017 May

22 Concluding Remarks 22

23 CO 2 regulations and policy developments EU system becoming effective in 2018 ( EU MRV ) IMO system becoming effective in 2019 ( Data Collection System ) Ships must collect voyage data under both systems, allowing for monitoring, reporting and verification of CO 2 emissions and vessel efficiency data Similarities, but also significant differences between systems, with technical, commercial and enforcement implications. Key question for industry: will systems be harmonised? politically difficult both inside EU and in the IMO several years of overlapping systems expected IT systems for monitoring and reporting becoming a practical necessity 23
