Optimal emission control under public port rivalry: A comparison of competitive and cooperative policy

open access: yesMaritime Transport Research, 2020
This study examines the optimal emission control at two competing public ports. We first develop a two-stage duopoly model in which governments determine the emission standard that restrains shipping operators’ fuel quality and ports are involved in ...

Norwegian ship-owners' adoption of alternative fuels

open access: yesEnergy Policy, 2022
The shipping sector's rising greenhouse gas emissions are often considered “hard-to-abate”. Some ship-owners have recently adopted or started to consider the adoption of alternative fuels, but systematic studies of this are still lacking. We address this gap by studying how ship-owners differ in both actual and intended adoption of alternative fuels ...
