Improve shipping efficiency

The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) has assessed the long-term prospects for increasing shipping efficiency. The study “Long-term potential for increased shipping efficiency through the adoption of industry-leading practices” indicates that there is the potential to reduce shipping’s emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in absolute terms even while freight movement doubles, as it is expected to do by 2040. Moving to industry-leading ship efficiency practices could reduce emissions of CO₂ by 300 million metric tons per year and oil consumption by 2 million barrels per day by 2030, compared to business-as-usual efficiency practices.
