DNV Report Highlights Need for Regulatory Framework to Accelerate CO₂ Capture in Shipping Sector
CARBON CAPTURE
A DNV report emphasizes the need for a clear regulatory framework to enable Onboard Carbon Capture and Storage (OCCS) investments among major shipping companies, including CMA CGM, Evergreen, Hapag-Lloyd, Maersk, and MSC. Despite delays in implementing the IMO's Net Zero Framework, the report advocates for the development of onboard CO₂ capture solutions.
It proposes the Asia-North Europe trade route as a test environment for OCCS due to its emissions profile and existing CO₂ storage initiatives. The report also notes the successful unloading of 20 tons of captured CO₂ from the Ever Top vessel in Rotterdam, marking the first successful pilot for OCCS technology.
