一位高级官员周四表示，欧盟将在下周的联合国海事机构会议上推行更严格的标准，以减少船舶的碳排放强度。
国际海事组织（The International Maritime Organization, IMO）下周将讨论措施以引导航运业实现承诺，即2050年航运业温室气体排放量较2008年降低50%。
措施中包括要求船舶降低其碳排放强度。国际海事组织的一个工作组已经提议到2026年碳排放强度从2019年的水平降低11%。
这对欧盟委员会来说还不够，他们希望出台能够延续至2030年的标准。
欧盟委员会水运部主任的主任玛格达•考普金斯加 (Magda Kopczynska)与欧洲议会的立法者在会议上说：“我们会进一步明确标准。我们需要确定2026年之后的减排目标，一直延续到2030年。”
她在谈到2026年以后不设定目标的计划时说：“这种不确定性既不利于商定的监管框架，也不利于海事组织的战略。”
欧盟称，国际海事组织(IMO)的目标要求到2030年，船舶的碳排放强度至少要减少21.5%。其他国家担心更严格的目标会阻碍全球贸易或增加物流成本。
海事组织的一位女发言人说，这个问题将在下周的会议上讨论，海事组织的170多个成员国可以提出他们的观点。
欧盟的气候目标比国际海事组织的目标更加雄心勃勃，其目标是到2050年前实现净零排放。航运业被认为是去碳化最棘手的部门之一，因为行业团体指出其缺乏商业上可行的低碳技术，而这些技术离广泛使用还有很长时间。
布鲁塞尔将在下个月提出遏制航运排放的政策，包括将该行业纳入欧盟碳排放市场，即要求船舶在排污时要购买排污许可证。
欧盟委员会尚未确认该政策是否将涵盖欧洲境内的所有航线或以欧盟国家为起点或终点的国际航线。

EU Presses Shipping Regulator For Tougher Carbon Reduction Standards
The European Union will push for tougher standards to cut the CO2 emissions intensity of ships at a meeting of the United Nations’ maritime agency next week, a senior official said on Thursday.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) will next week discuss measures to steer shipping towards its pledge to halve shipping’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, from 2008 levels.
Among them are standards requiring ships to reduce their CO2 intensity. An IMO working group has proposed an 11% carbon intensity cut by 2026, from 2019 levels.
That does not go far enough for the European Commission, which wants standards that cover the full decade to 2030.
“We will be clear. We need certainty about the reduction target after 2026, all the way to 2030,” Magda Kopczynska, the Commission’s director for waterborne transport, said in a meeting with lawmakers from European Parliament.
“Such uncertainty does justice neither to the agreed regulatory framework, nor to the IMO strategy,” she said of the plan to not set goals beyond 2026.
The EU says the IMO’s own targets require at least a 21.5% cut in CO2 intensity for ships by 2030. Other countries fear tougher targets could hamper global trade or increase logistics costs.
An IMO spokeswoman said the issue was up for discussion at next week’s session and the IMO’s more than 170 member states could give their points of view.
The EU’s climate targets are more ambitious than those of the IMO, with the bloc aiming to eliminate its net emissions by 2050. Shipping is seen as one of the trickiest sectors to decarbonise, with industry groups citing a lack of commercially viable low-carbon technologies, which are still years away from widespread use.
Brussels will next month propose policies to curb shipping emissions, including a plan to add the sector to the EU carbon market – requiring ships to buy permits when they pollute.
The Commission has not yet confirmed if it would cover emissions from voyages within Europe or international trips that begin or end in the EU.
