Recommendation 10

10

Set stretching interim targets for UK domestic and international shipping emissions.

Recommendation
Net zero offers the UK an unrivalled opportunity to secure benefits for the UK maritime sector and the UK’s research and manufacturing base. It is now high time for Ministers to advance to the next stage of policy development by setting stretching but achievable interim targets for UK domestic and international shipping emissions, consistent with carbon budget requirements and the overall 2050 net zero target. (Paragraph 95) Technical measures to decarbonise shipping: renewable marine fuels
