摘要：	Q: What is the purpose of the ESI and the role of the Green Award Foundation? A: The Environmental Ship Index (ESI) is a voluntary ship index designed and used by port authorities and maritime administrations to incentivize shipowners, operators, and managers to improve the ship's environmental performance. The two environmental modules are ESI Air and ESI Noise. The ESI Air score evaluates the amount of nitrogen oxide and sulfur oxide released by a ship and includes a reporting scheme on their energy efficiency to monitor their potential reduction on carbon dioxide emission. The ESI Noise score evaluates how much noise pollution a seagoing ship has mitigated based on the noise measurement guideline of the Neptunes protocol. Since 2021, the Green Award Foundation has been implementing daily ESI operations. This includes correspondences with shipping companies and ports, executing onboard verifications, and arranging ESI-related meetings. Green Award - via its certification program - audits shipping companies and their ships that go beyond industry standards in terms of safety, quality, and environmental performance.
