FuelEU Verification Dashboard

📅 Implementation Timeline

• 2025–2029: Gradual reduction in GHG intensity begins.
• 2030 Onwards: Mandatory On-shore Power Supply (OPS) for passenger and container ships.
• 2050: Target to reach full climate neutrality in maritime emissions.

⚖️ Compliance & Enforcement

• Verifier Role: Accredited independent verifiers check Monitoring Plans and reports.
• Penalties: Non-compliance may lead to fines, denied port entry, or revoked DoC.
• Annual Review: Compliance reviewed yearly based on verified reports.

📉 GHG Reduction Trajectory (vs 2020)

🧪 Fuel Considerations

• Recognized Fuels: LNG, biofuels, synthetic fuels, hydrogen, methanol, ammonia, etc.
• Performance: Based on fuel type, emission factors, and onboard usage.

⚙️ FuelEU Maritime Database

• Stores: Monitoring Plans, Compliance Reports, Pooling Records, Compliance Balances.
• Access: Limited to EU regulators, verifiers, and company personnel.

🔄 Regulatory Synergy

• ETS Alignment: FuelEU complements the EU Emission Trading System.
• MRV Integration: Works with Monitoring, Reporting, Verification (MRV) systems.
• AFIR Link: Ties to infrastructure regulations for OPS availability.

🌍 Third Country Rules

• Third Country Rule: 50% of emissions apply for non-EU voyages.
• Norway & Iceland: Considered third countries from 2025 until EEA integration.

💶 Economic Impact

• Credit Trading: Potential for transferring surplus compliance credits.
• Operational Adjustments: Encourages energy-saving routes and speed reductions.
• CapEx/OpEx: Drives investment in efficient engines, OPS, and retrofits.
