Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3
(3) The European Parliament'In its Rresolution of February 2014 on a 2030 framework for climate and energy policies called on the Commission and the Member States to set a binding Union 203014 March 2019, Parliament supported the objective of climate neutrality by a large majority and urged that concrete measures are needed to achieve this objective. Furthermore, the European Parliament has on several occasions expressed its support for raising the Union's binding target ofor reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% compared to 1990 levels2030. The European Parliament also notedpointed out that all sectors of the economy would need to, including international aviation and maritime transport, must contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissiones if the Union is to deliver its fair share ofmake an adequate contribution to the global efforts.

Amendment 73 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13 a (new)
(13a) The successful transition to zero- emission shipping requires an integrated approach and the right enabling environment to stimulate innovation, both on ships and in ports. That enabling environment involves public and private investment in research and innovation, technological and operational measures to improve the energy efficiency of ships, and the deployment of sustainable alternative fuels and propulsion technologies, including the necessary refuelling and recharging infrastructure in ports. A Maritime Transport Decarbonisation Fund should be established from revenues generated from the auctioning of maritime allowances under the EU ETS to improve the energy efficiency of ships and support investment in innovative technologies and infrastructure to decarbonise maritime transport, including in short sea shipping and ports, and the deployment of sustainable alternative fuels and zero- emission propulsion technologies. The Commission should also develop measures to regulate the access of the most polluting ships to Union ports and to oblige docked fossil-fuel ships to use shore-side electricity. An exemption should only be given for completely zero- emission ships. The Commission should also require ports to adopt demurrage tariffs based on emissions.

Amendment 92 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15 c (new)
(15c) There is broad consensus on top of the inclusion in the EU ETS, additional measures are necessary and useful. Among others, the IMO has worked on an efficiency standard. It is appropriate to include the core elements of this efficiency standard in Union law. That is why the Commission should be obliged to start the impact assessment and make the corresponding proposal as soon as possible.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point a a (new)
Regulation (EU) 2015/757
Article 3 – paragraph 1 – point d a (new)
(aa) after point d, the following point is inserted: (da) This Regulation lays down rules for the accurate monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide (CO2)emissions and of other relevant information from ships arriving at, within or departing from ports under the jurisdiction of a Member State, in order to promote the reduction of CO2 emissions from maritime transport in a cost effective manner. In order to contribute to achieving the Union's commitment to reducing its domestic and economy-wide GHG emissions under the Paris Agreement, and to implement the IMO Initial Strategy on reduction of GHG emissions from ships at Union level, this Regulation also imposes obligations on companies to reduce their CO2 emissions per transport work by at least 40% by 2030 compared to the average performance per category of ships of the same size and type in 2008, which is the same international baseline set by IMO in its Initial Strategy.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 1 – paragraph 1 a (new)
Regulation (EU) 2015/757
Article 3 – paragraph 1 – point d a (new)
(1a) In Article 3, paragraph 1 the following point is inserted: (da) The Commission shall by 30 June 2021, after a proper impact assessment, propose an amendment of the Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council* to include emissions taking place as from 1 January 2023 from all ships that arrive at or depart from Union ports and are regulated by this Regulation. The Commission shall indicate how to achieve at least 40% reduction by 2030 compared to 2008 (which is the same international baseline set by IMO in its Initial Strategyon reduction of GHG emissions from ships) and suggest appropriate measures in order to reach the target as soon as possible; thereby considering the MEPC 76 outcomes on the matter of short-term measures. To ensure the best possible environmental integrity and ensure the competitiveness of European ship owners, the proposal should be neutral on flags and ensure equal treatment, and all funds from full auctioning shall fund maritime research, development and innovation measures to tackle climate change, including an establishment of a 'Maritime Transport Decarbonisation Fund' (the Fund) and is to be established for the period from 2021 to 2030, containing 50% of the revenues from the auctioning of allowances will be allocated to the Fund to improve the energy efficiency of ships and support investment in innovative technologies and infrastructure to decarbonise maritime transport, to invest in the electrification of transport, and the development of sustainable alternative fuels and zero emission propulsion technologies. Due to the Commission’s expectations on an international deal through the IMO, latest by spring 2021, the Commission states in their Communication of 11 December 2019 on a ‘European Green Deal’, that a proposal for including shipping into the EU ETS is scheduled by June 2021. The European Commission shall adopt their proposal before for the amendments to the Directive 2003/87/EC if the European Commission - with certainty - can conclude that an international agreement on short-term measures towards 2030 is out of reach. __________________ * Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (OJ L275, 25.10.2003, p. 32).

Article 22 a (new)
(6b) The following Article 22a is inserted: "Article 22a Review 1. As part of the forthcoming review of Directive 2014/94/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council* and Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council**, the Commission shall also make a proposal to set up binding targets for Member States to ensure that there is an adequate supply of shore-side electricity in maritime and inland ports. 2. By 31 December 2024, the Commission shall review the functioning of this Regulation, taking into account experience gained in its implementation, as well as other relevant developments aimed at reducing GHG emissions from maritime transport and at fulfilling the Union’s commitments under the Paris Agreement. As part of the review, the Commission shall propose additional requirements to reduce air pollutants from ships. The review shall, where appropriate, be accompanied by a proposal to amend this Regulation. In line with Directive (EU) 2018/2001of the European Parliament and of the Council, the Commission shall assess regulatory and administrative barriers and shall make proposals to remove unjustified barriers that hamper the uptake of installation of renewable energies in the ports.
