Merchant Shipping: Carbon Emissions
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government whether the decision to postpone until 2025 the requirement on ship operators to report their carbon dioxide emissions fulfils the Government’s obligations under the Merchant Shipping (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification of Carbon Dioxide Emissions) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018.
- Answer
-
In 2021, the UK delayed the implementation of the UK MRV (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification of Emissions) regime, to allow time to establish a new UK digital system for reporting maritime CO2 emissions data. Since January 2022, ship operators have been required to collect and verify their emissions data, to be reported once the new system is operational.
