Guedes Soares, C. (2023), “Special Issue: Decarbonization of Ship Operations”, Journal of Marine Science and Application, Vol. 22(4), pp. 659-661
The need to reduce the trends associated with climate change impose measures to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and an increase in the efficiency of the use of energy. IMO has been active since 1997 in promoting the implementation of measures that lead to more efficient ship operation with less fuel consumption and less emissions. The measures include improved ship design and improved operational practices. Several indexes have been created to quantify different aspects of these improvements. The shipping industry has been very actively implementing several actions aiming to the decarbonization of ship operation and more need to continue being implemented.
This special issue aims to collect in a single location the contributions that will allow an overview of the present state of the art in this subject area.
