| 摘要： | Maritime's transition to a decarbonized future is already under way, with the IMO setting a 50% emission-reduction target for 2050 as compared with shipping emissions in 2008. Many stakeholders have announced even more ambitious targets. The Zero-Emission Shipping Mission has announced its intention to demonstrate commercially viable zero-emission ships by 2030. Maersk has accelerated its net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission goal by a decade to 2040, plans to have a completely carbon-neutral liner in operation as early as 2023, and has committed to only ordering dual-fuel newbuilds henceforth. Several major shippers, including Unilever, IKEA, and Amazon, have pledged to transport cargo using only zero carbon-fueled ships by 2040. A key factor in the decarbonization transition is fuel and energy availability, prompting the emergence of the terms green as well as bunkering corridors. These corridors will be explicitly designed to facilitate the net-zero or zero-emission transport of goods and passengers. The intention is that these, as transport pathways, will see increased investment, serve as a designated area to test new technologies, and as a business case for decarbonized operations and uptake of alternative fuels. With ports serving as bunkering hubs, there is considerable economic opportunity to invest in low-carbon bunkering infrastructure. |
