Climate Regulation and ESG Disclosure in Maritime Transport

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether climate policy signals influence ESG disclosure quality in maritime transport, a capital‐intensive industry responsible for roughly 3% of global CO₂ emissions. Using panel data from 126 listed shipping firms between 2009 and 2023, we construct an author‐based disclosure quality index and treat the IMO's 2018 ...

Is hydrogen a decarbonizing fuel for maritime shipping?

Maritime Technology and Research
To meet the targets for carbon emissions as laid out by the Paris Agreement, the International Maritime Organisation has experimented with several technological, operational, and incentive-based methods. However, to date, a viable and reliable method or technology has eluded humankind in meeting the desired carbon emission standards of the shipping ...

Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...

Abatement of bilge dumping: Another piece to achieve Maritime Decarbonization

Societal Impacts
The release of bilge water into the oceans presents a high environmental risk and poses a serious threat to marine life, which are already affected negatively by climate change. Nowadays, technologies like satellite allows to real policing of the oceans. Adequate port reception facilities combined with comprehensive crew training and improved oil-water

Towards Safe Maritime Decarbonization: Safety Barriers of Methanol Fuel

Sustainability
In response to global concerns about climate change and decarbonization across every sector, pressure has mounted on the maritime industry to reduce its environmental impacts, specifically its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing around 2.8% of the global total.

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

Location of fueling stations and routing of zero‐emission well‐boats in the Norwegian aquaculture industry

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We study the problem of locating hydrogen fueling stations for zero‐emission aquaculture vessels in Norway and model the problem as a location‐routing problem, considering both the location of hydrogen fueling stations and the routing of aquaculture vessels.

Unreachable, Inescapable: Sustainable Development as Normative Camouflage in EU–MERCOSUR Trade

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how sustainable development functions as a mechanism of stabilising asymmetry in North–South trade governance, using the European Union (EU)–Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR) agreement as a case study. Whilst sustainability is often framed as a normative good or institutional advance, the article shows instead how it ...
