The EU ETS is a cap-and-trade system that requires certain industries, including the maritime sector, to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases. The scheme requires all vessels trading to EU ports to monitor and report emissions and, subsequently, its shipping companies to surrender allowances for the GHG emitted by their fleet (in CO2eq). These allowances are traded in a market, and the price of the allowances is determined by supply and demand. By trading in allowances, the EU ETS aims to provide a financial incentive for ships to reduce their emissions, as this reduces the cost of having to buy more allowances. This, in turn, encourages owners and operators to use more efficient methods of vessel operation, such as using a lower speed and more efficient propulsion systems or using alternative fuels.
The European Union emissions trading scheme is a market-based payment system that EU countries use to buy and sell emissions data and products. The scheme also raises funds for EU public services, such as emissions research, energy metering, and air quality management. Overall, the EU ETS aims to reduce the environmental impact of ships trading to EU ports while at the same time giving operators a financial incentive to reduce their emissions.

The BIMCO 180 seminar is an opportunity to be briefed on the current regulations and trends and their implications for the maritime industry. By attending, you can learn about the requirements and impact of the EU emissions trading scheme and how it affects the operation of ships trading to and from EU ports. The seminar will provide participants with an overview of the system, including a discussion of the costs, benefits, and other implications for the maritime sector. Additionally, participants will gain valuable insights into the latest developments in the industry, such as the recent amendments to the scheme and their implications for the industry. Through the BIMCO seminar, participants can better understand the scheme's various aspects and how it can affect their business operations.
The seminar on the European Union emissions trading scheme and how it impacts the operation of ships trading to EU ports will assist professional development by better understanding the regulations and requirements associated with vessels trading to EU ports. It will also provide knowledge on assessing the costs and benefits of operating ships in the EU emissions trading scheme, allowing for better-informed decisions regarding vessel operations. Finally, the seminar will help participants stay updated with the latest developments in the European Union emissions trading scheme and where to look for additional information, which ensures that operations are compliant and take advantage of the available opportunities, including emissions trading.
