Policy Papers

We engage policymakers at the UN’s International Maritime Organisation (IMO), the European Union (EU) and national policy levels to take a holistic approach that puts wind energy on a level playing field with fuels and other energy sources.

Integrating zero-emissions, zero-cost wind energy into all policy pathways is vital to deliver a sustainable, equitable and profitable future global shipping fleet.

Together with industry stakeholders and policymakers, we are charting the course to Net Zero emissions, in the fastest and most cost-effective way. 

We believe the most effective route to achieving this is through:

• High ambition zero-emissions platform for all policy measures, not solely direct GHG emissions.
• Circular distribution of revenue from economic measures to fund energy transition technology and solution scaling.
• Adopt a energy-centric rather than narrow fuel-centric approach.
• Fully energy and technology agnostic, level playing field.
• Integration of direct wind propulsion into all policy, including carbon intensity measurements and economic measures.
• Support for a ‘Just’ and ‘Equitable’ transition for SIDS and LDCs
