All eyes on IMO as Europe moves ahead with CO2 monitoring regime for ships
EU co-legislators reached an informal agreement last week on the Commission proposal for a Regulation on the monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of CO2 emissions of maritime transport.
The agreement paves the way for a European MRV system that will become operational as of 2018, applying to ships above 5000 GT arriving and departing from EU ports, regardless of their flag and ownership.
The Regulation is meant to be a stepping stone towards a global MRV instrument, which is currently being discussed at the International Maritime organisation (IMO).

欧洲推进船舶二氧化碳监测制度,全球目光聚焦IMO
欧盟立法者在上周欧盟委员会上达成非正式协议,协议建议制定对海事运输的二氧化碳排放进行监测、报告和验证(MRV)的规则。
该协议将在2018年启用,为欧洲MRV系统的推进奠定了基础,该协议适用于5000GT以上的船舶在欧盟港口停靠和离开,不管他们的国旗和所有权。
该规则是MRV系统走向全球的一个跳板,目前国际海事组织(IMO)正在讨论相关事宜。
